Psalms 139 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

How Precious Your Thoughts!

1. For the music director: a psalm of David. Adonai, You searched me and know me.

2. Whenever I sit down or stand up, You know it. You discern my thinking from afar.

3. You observe my journeying and my resting and You are familiar with all my ways.

4. Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, Adonai, You know all about it.

5. You hemmed me in behind and before, and laid Your hand upon me.

6. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.

7. Where can I go from Your Ruach? Where can I flee from Your presence?

8. If I go up to heaven, You are there, and if I make my bed in Sheol, look, You are there too.

9. If I take the wings of the dawn and settle on the other side of the sea,

10. even there Your hand will lead me, and Your right hand will lay hold of me.

11. If I say: “Surely darkness covers me, night keeps light at a distance from me,”

12. even darkness is not dark for You, and night is as bright as day— darkness and light are alike.

13. For You have created my conscience. You knit me together in my mother’s womb.

14. I praise You, for I am awesomely, wonderfully made! Wonderful are Your works— and my soul knows that very well.

15. My frame was not hidden from You when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.

16. Your eyes saw me when I was unformed, and in Your book were written the days that were formed— when not one of them had come to be.

17. How precious are Your thoughts, O God! How great is the sum of them!

18. Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand! When I awake, I am still with You.

19. If only You would slay the wicked, O God! Away from me, you bloody men!

20. For they speak about You with wicked intent. Your enemies reproach You in vain.

21. Do I not hate those who hate You, Adonai? Do I not loathe those who rise against You?

22. I hate them with total hatred— I consider them my enemies.

23. Search me, O God, and know my heart. Examine me, and know my anxious thoughts,

24. and see if there be any offensive way within me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
