## Where Can I Go from Your Spirit?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 1
|
||
|
|
O Yahweh, You have searched me and known _me_.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 2
|
||
|
|
You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 3
|
||
|
|
You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 4
|
||
|
|
Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O Yahweh, You know it all.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 5
|
||
|
|
You have enclosed me behind and before, And You have put Your hand upon me.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 6
|
||
|
|
_Such_ knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is _too_ high, I cannot attain to it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 7
|
||
|
|
Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 8
|
||
|
|
If I ascend to heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 9
|
||
|
|
If I lift up the wings of the dawn, If I dwell in the remotest part 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 the darkness will bruise me, And the light around me will be night,"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 12
|
||
|
|
Even the darkness is not too dark for You, And the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are alike _to You_.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 13
|
||
|
|
For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother's womb.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 14
|
||
|
|
I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 15
|
||
|
|
My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, _And_ intricately woven in the depths of the earth;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 16
|
||
|
|
Your eyes have seen my unshaped substance; And in Your book all of them were written The days that were formed _for me_, When as yet there was not one of them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 17
|
||
|
|
How precious are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 18
|
||
|
|
If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand. When I awake, I am still with You.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 19
|
||
|
|
Oh that You would slay the wicked, O God! O men of bloodshed, depart from me.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 20
|
||
|
|
For they speak against You wickedly, And Your enemies take _Your name_ in vain.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 21
|
||
|
|
Do I not hate those who hate You, O Yahweh? And do I not revile those who rise up against You?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 22
|
||
|
|
I hate them with the utmost hatred; They have become my enemies.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 23
|
||
|
|
Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me and know my anxious thoughts;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 24
|
||
|
|
And see if there be any hurtful way in me, And lead me in the everlasting way.
|
