Psalm 139:1-14

  ¹ O LORD, you have searched me
       and you know me.

    ² You know when I sit and when I rise;
       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 know it completely, O LORD.
    ⁵ You hem me in—behind and before;
       you have laid your hand upon me.
    ⁶ Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
       too lofty for me to attain.
    ⁷ Where can I go from your Spirit?
       Where can I flee from your presence?
    ⁸ If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
       if I make my bed in the depths, ^[a] you are there.
    ⁹ If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
       if I settle on the far side of the sea,
    ¹⁰ even there your hand will guide me,
       your right hand will hold me fast.
    ¹¹ If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me
       and the light become night around me,"
    ¹² even the darkness will not be dark to you;
       the night will shine like the day,
       for darkness is as light to you.
    ¹³ For you created my inmost being;
       you knit me together in my mother's womb.
    ¹⁴ I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
       your works are wonderful,
       I know that full well.
