Psalm 139 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Psa 139:1For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. LORD, you have searched me, And you know me.
Psa 139:2You know my sitting down and my rising up. You perceive my thoughts from afar.
Psa 139:3You search out my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways.
Psa 139:4For there is not a word on my tongue, But, behold, LORD, you know it altogether.
Psa 139:5You tzitzit me in behind and before. You laid your hand on me.
Psa 139:6This knowledge is beyond me. It's lofty. I can't attain it.
Psa 139:7Where could I go from your Spirit? Or where could I flee from your presence?
Psa 139:8If I ascend up into heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in She'ol, behold, you are there!
Psa 139:9If I take the wings of the dawn, And settle in the uttermost parts of the sea;
Psa 139:10Even there your hand will lead me, And your right hand will hold me.
Psa 139:11If I say, "Surely the darkness will overwhelm me; The light around me will be night;"
Psa 139:12Even the darkness doesn't hide from you, But the night shines as the day. The darkness is like light to you.
Psa 139:13For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother's womb.
Psa 139:14I will give thanks to you, For I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well.
Psa 139:15My frame wasn't hidden from you, When I was made in secret, Woven together in the depths of the eretz.
Psa 139:16Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, The days that were ordained for me, When as yet there were none of them.
Psa 139:17How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them!
Psa 139:18If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand. When I wake up, I am still with you.
Psa 139:19If only you, God, would kill the wicked. Get away from me, you bloodthirsty men!
Psa 139:20For they speak against you wickedly. Your enemies take your name in vain.
Psa 139:21LORD, don't I hate those who hate you? Am I not grieved with those who rise up against you?
Psa 139:22I hate them with perfect hatred. They have become my enemies.
Psa 139:23Search me, God, and know my heart. Try me, and know my thoughts.
Psa 139:24See if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the everlasting way.
