Psalm 139 – A Song of Worship and Reflection

Psalm 139

139:1 O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.

139:2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou

understandest my thought afar off.

139:3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted

with all my ways.

139:4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou

knowest it altogether.

139:5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon

me.

139:6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot

attain unto it.

139:7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from

thy presence?

139:8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in

hell, behold, thou art there.

139:9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost

parts of the sea;

139:10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall

hold me.

139:11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night

shall be light about me.

139:12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth

as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

139:13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my

mother’s womb.

139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:

marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

139:15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret,

and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

139:16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in

thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were

fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

139:17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is

the sum of them!

139:18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand:

when I awake, I am still with thee.

139:19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me

therefore, ye bloody men.

139:20 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take

thy name in vain.

139:21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I

grieved with those that rise up against thee?

139:22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

139:23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my

thoughts:

139:24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the

way everlasting.
