Psalms 139:13-23

¹³For thou haddest in possession my reins; thou tookest me up from the womb of my mother.

¹⁴I shall acknowledge to thee, for thou art magnified dreadfully; thy works be wonderful, and my soul shall know that full much.

¹⁵My bone, which thou madest in private, is not hid from thee; and my substance formed in the lower parts of the earth.

¹⁶Thine eyes saw mine unperfect thing, and all men shall be written in thy book; days shall be formed, and no man is in those or them.

¹⁷Forsooth, God, thy friends be made honourable full much to me; the prince-hood of them is comforted full much.

¹⁸I shall number them, and they shall be multiplied above the gravel; I rose up, and yet I am with thee.

¹⁹For thou, God, shalt slay sinners; ye men-quellers, bow away from me.

²⁰For they say in thought; Take they their cities in vanity.

²¹Lord, whether I hated not them that hated thee; and I failed, that is, mourned greatly, on thine enemies?

²²By perfect hatred I hated them; they were made enemies to me.

²³God, prove thou me, and know thou mine heart; ask thou me, and know thou my paths.
