| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1For the director of music. Of David. A psalm. You have searched me, LORD, and you know me. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4Before a word is on my tongue you, LORD, know it completely. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me," |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15My 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. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them! |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand-- when I awake, I am still with you. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19If only you, God, would slay the wicked! Away from me, you who are bloodthirsty! |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20They speak of you with evil intent; your adversaries misuse your name. |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21Do I not hate those who hate you, LORD, and abhor those who are in rebellion against you? |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22I have nothing but hatred for them; I count them my enemies. |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. |
| 24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. |
