Psalms 139:1-10

¹Yahweh, you have examined me, and you know everything about me.

²You know when I sit down and when I stand up. Even though you are far away from me, you know what I am thinking.

³When I travel and when I lie down, you know everything that I do.

⁴Yahweh, even before I say MTY anything, you know everything that I am going to say!

⁵You protect me on all sides; you put your hand on me to protect me with your power MTY.

⁶I am not able to understand that you know everything about me. That is too great for me to really understand.

⁷◄Where could I go to escape from your Spirit?/I could not go anywhere to escape from your Spirit.► RHQ ◄Where could I go to get away from you?/I could not go anywhere to get away from you.► RHQ

⁸If I went up to heaven, you would be there. If I lay down in the place where the dead people are, you would be there.

⁹If I had wings and flew very far east MTY, or if I flew west and made a place to live on an island in the ocean,

¹⁰you would be there also, to lead me by your hand, and you would help me.
