ERV(i)
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. LORD, thou hast searched me, and known [me].
2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
3 Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
6 [Such] knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
7 Whither shall I from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in Sheol, behold, thou art there.
9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall overwhelm me, and the light about me shall be night;
12 Even the darkness hideth not from thee, but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike [to thee].
13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.
