A Psalm of David. O LORD, Thou hast searched me, and known me.139:2אַתָּה יָדַעְתָּ שִׁבְתִּי וְקוּמִי בַּנְתָּה לְרֵעִי מֵרָחֽוֹק׃Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, Thou understandest my thought afar off.139:3אָרְחִי וְרִבְעִי זֵרִיתָ וְֽכָל־דְּרָכַי הִסְכַּֽנְתָּה׃Thou measurest my going about and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.139:4כִּי אֵין מִלָּה בִּלְשׁוֹנִי הֵן יְהוָה יָדַעְתָּ כֻלָּֽהּ׃For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, Thou knowest it altogether.139:5אָחוֹר וָקֶדֶם צַרְתָּנִי וַתָּשֶׁת עָלַי כַּפֶּֽכָה׃Thou hast hemmed me in behind and before, and laid Thy hand upon me.139:6פְּלִיאָֽה דַעַת מִמֶּנִּי נִשְׂגְּבָה לֹא־אוּכַֽל לָֽהּ׃Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; too high, I cannot attain unto it.139:7אָנָה אֵלֵךְ מֵרוּחֶךָ וְאָנָה מִפָּנֶיךָ אֶבְרָֽח׃Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy presence?139:8אִם־אֶסַּק שָׁמַיִם שָׁם אָתָּה וְאַצִּיעָה שְּׁאוֹל הִנֶּֽךָּ׃If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there; if I make my bed in the nether-world, behold, Thou art there.139:9אֶשָּׂא כַנְפֵי־שָׁחַר אֶשְׁכְּנָה בְּאַחֲרִית יָֽם׃If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;139:10גַּם־שָׁם יָדְךָ תַנְחֵנִי וְֽתֹאחֲזֵנִי יְמִינֶֽךָ׃Even there would Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand would hold me.139:11וָאֹמַר אַךְ־חֹשֶׁךְ יְשׁוּפֵנִי וְלַיְלָה אוֹר בַּעֲדֵֽנִי׃And if I say: 'Surely the darkness shall envelop me, and the light about me shall be night';139:12גַּם־חֹשֶׁךְ לֹֽא־יַחְשִׁיךְ מִמֶּךָ וְלַיְלָה כַּיּוֹם יָאִיר כַּחֲשֵׁיכָה כָּאוֹרָֽה׃Even the darkness is not too dark for Thee, but the night shineth as the day; the darkness is even as the light.139:13כִּֽי־אַתָּה קָנִיתָ כִלְיֹתָי תְּסֻכֵּנִי בְּבֶטֶן אִמִּֽי׃For Thou hast made my reins; Thou hast knit me together in my mother's womb.139:14אֽוֹדְךָ עַל כִּי נוֹרָאוֹת נִפְלֵיתִי נִפְלָאִים מַעֲשֶׂיךָ וְנַפְשִׁי יֹדַעַת מְאֹֽד׃I will give thanks unto Thee, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.139:15לֹא־נִכְחַד עָצְמִי מִמֶּךָּ אֲשֶׁר־עֻשֵּׂיתִי בַסֵּתֶר רֻקַּמְתִּי בְּֽתַחְתִּיּוֹת אָֽרֶץ׃My frame was not hidden from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.139:16גָּלְמִי ׀ רָאוּ עֵינֶיךָ וְעַֽל־סִפְרְךָ כֻּלָּם יִכָּתֵבוּ יָמִים יֻצָּרוּ וְלוֹ אֶחָד בָּהֶֽם׃Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance, and in Thy book they were all written — even the days that were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.139:17וְלִי מַה־יָּקְרוּ רֵעֶיךָ אֵל מֶה עָצְמוּ רָאשֵׁיהֶֽם׃How weighty also are Thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them!139:18אֶסְפְּרֵם מֵחוֹל יִרְבּוּן הֱקִיצֹתִי וְעוֹדִי עִמָּֽךְ׃If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand; were I to come to the end of them, I would still be with Thee.139:19אִם־תִּקְטֹל אֱלוֹהַּ ׀ רָשָׁע וְאַנְשֵׁי דָמִים סוּרוּ מֶֽנִּי׃If Thou but wouldest slay the wicked, O God — depart from me therefore, ye men of blood;139:20אֲשֶׁר יֹאמְרֻךָ לִמְזִמָּה נָשֻׂא לַשָּׁוְא עָרֶֽיךָ׃Who utter Thy name with wicked thought, they take it for falsehood, even Thine enemies —139:21הֲלֽוֹא־מְשַׂנְאֶיךָ יְהוָה ׀ אֶשְׂנָא וּבִתְקוֹמְמֶיךָ אֶתְקוֹטָֽט׃Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate Thee? And do not I strive with those that rise up against Thee?139:22תַּכְלִית שִׂנְאָה שְׂנֵאתִים לְאוֹיְבִים הָיוּ לִֽי׃I hate them with utmost hatred; I count them mine enemies.139:23חָקְרֵנִי אֵל וְדַע לְבָבִי בְּחָנֵנִי וְדַע שַׂרְעַפָּֽי׃Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me, and know my thoughts;139:24וּרְאֵה אִם־דֶּֽרֶךְ־עֹצֶב בִּי וּנְחֵנִי בְּדֶרֶךְ עוֹלָֽם׃And see if there be any way in me that is grievous, and lead me in the way everlasting.← previousPsalms 138next →Psalms 140↑ back to PsalmsThis page in Markdown → https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/PSA/139/
