Psalm 139:12-24
New International Version
12 even the darkness will not be dark(A) to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.
13 For you created my inmost being;(B)
you knit me together(C) in my mother’s womb.(D)
14 I praise you(E) because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,(F)
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made(G) in the secret place,
when I was woven together(H) in the depths of the earth.(I)
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained(J) for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
17 How precious to me are your thoughts,[a](K) God!(L)
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,(M)
they would outnumber the grains of sand(N)—
when I awake,(O) I am still with you.
19 If only you, God, would slay the wicked!(P)
Away from me,(Q) you who are bloodthirsty!(R)
20 They speak of you with evil intent;
your adversaries(S) misuse your name.(T)
21 Do I not hate those(U) who hate you, Lord,
and abhor(V) those who are in rebellion against you?
22 I have nothing but hatred for them;
I count them my enemies.(W)
23 Search me,(X) God, and know my heart;(Y)
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 See if there is any offensive way(Z) in me,
and lead me(AA) in the way everlasting.
