3Thou measurest my going about and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
4For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, Thou knowest it altogether.
5Thou hast hemmed me in behind and before, and laid Thy hand upon me.
6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; too high, I cannot attain unto it.
7Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy presence?
8If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed in the nether-world, behold, Thou art there.
9If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
10Even there would Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand would hold me.
11And if I say: 'Surely the darkness shall envelop me, and the light about me shall be night';
12Even the darkness is not too dark for Thee, but the night shineth as the day; the darkness is even as the light.
13For Thou hast made my reins; Thou hast knit me together in my mother's womb.
14I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
