Psalms 139:9-21

⁹If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

¹⁰Even there shall thy hand lead me, And thy right hand shall hold me.

¹¹If I say, Surely the darkness shall overwhelm me, And the light about me shall be night;

¹²Even the darkness hideth not from thee, But the night shineth as the day: The darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

¹³For thou didst form my inward parts: Thou didst cover me 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.

¹⁵My frame was not hidden from thee, When I was made in secret, And curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

¹⁶Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance; And in thy book they were all written, Even the days that were ordained for me, When as yet there was none of them.

¹⁷How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them!

¹⁸If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: When I awake, I am still with thee.

¹⁹Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: Depart from me therefore, ye bloodthirsty men.

²⁰For they speak against thee wickedly, And thine enemies take thy name in vain.

²¹Do not I hate them, O Jehovah, that hate thee? And am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
