- O Lord, you have searched me and known me.
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
you discern my thoughts from far away. - Even before a word is on my tongue,
O Lord, you know it completely. - Where can I go from your spirit?
Or where can I flee from your presence?
If I ascend to heaven, you are there;
if I make my bed in Sheol, you are there. - For it was you who formed my inward parts;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works;
that I know very well. - Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my thoughts.
See if there is any wicked way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.
This God—his way is perfect;
the promise of the Lord proves true;
he is a shield for all who take refuge in him. Keep your lives free from the love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, “I will never leave you or forsake you.”Next verse!With image
