Psalms 139:12-24

¹²The dark is not dark for you, but night is as light as the day.

¹³For you did put me together; in my mother's womb you did weave me.

¹⁴I give you praise for my fashioning so full of awe, so wonderful. Your works are wonderful. You knew me right well;

¹⁵my bones were not hidden from you, when I was made in secret, and woven in the depths of the earth.

¹⁶Your eyes saw all my days: they stood on your book every one written down, before they were fashioned, while none of them yet was mine.

¹⁷But how far, O God, beyond measure are your thoughts! How mighty their sum!

¹⁸Should I count, they are more than the sand. When I wake, I am still with you.

¹⁹Will you slay the wicked, O God? And remove from me the bloodthirsty,

²⁰who maliciously defy you and take your name in vain.

²¹Do I not hate those who hate you, Lord? Do I not loathe those who resist you?

²²With perfect hatred I hate them, I count them my enemies.

²³Search me, O God, know my heart: test me, and know my thoughts,

²⁴and see if guile be in me; and lead me in the way everlasting.
