you perceive my thoughts from afar.

3 You discern my going out and my lying down;

you are familiar with all my ways.

4 Before a word is on my tongue

you, Lord, know it completely.

2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up;

you discern my thoughts from afar.

3 You search out my path and my lying down

and are acquainted with all my ways.

4 Even before a word is on my tongue,

behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.

2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising,

Thou understandest my thought afar off.

3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down,

And art acquainted with all my ways.

4 For there is not a word in my tongue,

But, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.

and when I rest at home.

even before I say it, Lord.

4 Lord, even before I say a word,

you already know it.

2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising;

Thou understandest my thought afar off.

3 Thou searchest out my path and my lying down,

And art acquainted with all my ways.

4 For there is not a word in my tongue,

But, lo, O Jehovah, thou knowest it altogether.

2 Thou knowest my down-sitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off; 3 Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways; 4 For there is not yet a word on my tongue, but lo, O Jehovah, thou knowest it altogether.

2 You alone know when I sit down and when I get up. 

You read my thoughts from far away. 

3 You watch me when I travel and when I rest. 

You are familiar with all my ways.

you know all about it, Lord.

You understand my thoughts from far away.

3 You observe my travels and my rest;

You are aware of all my ways.

4 Before a word is on my tongue,

You know all about it, Lord.

O Lord, you know it completely.

2 You know my sitting down and my rising up.

You understand my thought from afar.

3 You search out my wandering and my lying down,

and are acquainted with all my ways.

4 For there is not a word yet on my tongue,

but behold, O Yahweh, you know it completely.

2 You know when I sit down and when I get up.

You know what I’m thinking even though you are far away.

3 You know when I go out to work and when I come back home.

You know exactly how I live.

4 Lord, even before I speak a word,

you know all about it.

2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up;

You understand my thought from afar.

3 You scrutinize my path and my lying down,

And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.

4 Even before there is a word on my tongue,

Behold, O Lord, You know it all.
