You discern my going out(A) and my lying down;
    you are familiar with all my ways.(B)
Before a word is on my tongue
    you, Lord, know it completely.(C)
You hem me in(D) behind and before,
    and you lay your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,(E)
    too lofty(F) for me to attain.

Where can I go from your Spirit?
    Where can I flee(G) from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens,(H) you are there;
    if I make my bed(I) in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
    if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 even there your hand will guide me,(J)
    your right hand(K) will hold me fast.

Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.

For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.

Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.

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.
