For you formed my inward parts;

you knitted me together in my mother’s womb.

when I was being made in secret,

intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

you knit me together in my mother’s womb.

I know that full well.

My frame was not hidden from you

when I was made in the secret place,

when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.

For it was you who created my inward parts;

you knit me together in my mother’s womb.

and I know this very well.

My bones were not hidden from you

when I was made in secret,

when I was formed in the depths of the earth.

NLTNew Living Translation

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body

and knit me together in my mother’s womb.

Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!

Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.

You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,

as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Indeed you created my inward parts;

you wove me in my mother’s womb.

I praise you, because I am fearfully

and wonderfully made.

Wonderful are your works,

and my soul knows it well.

My frame was not hidden from you,

when I was created secretly,

and intricately woven

in the depths of the earth.
