Psalm 22:9
New American Standard Bible
9 Yet You are He who (A)brought me forth from the womb;
You made me trust when upon my mother’s breasts.
Psalm 139:3-16
New American Standard Bible
3 You [a](A)scrutinize my [b]path and my lying down,
And are acquainted with all my ways.
4 [c]Even before there is a word on my tongue,
Behold, Lord, You (B)know it all.
5 You have (C)encircled me behind and in front,
And (D)placed Your hand upon me.
6 Such (E)knowledge is (F)too wonderful for me;
It is too high, I cannot comprehend it.
7 (G)Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
8 (H)If I ascend to heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in [d]Sheol, behold, (I)You are there.
9 If I take up the wings of the dawn,
If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,
10 Even there Your hand will (J)lead me,
And Your right hand will take hold of me.
11 If I say, “Surely the (K)darkness will [e]overwhelm me,
And the light around me will be night,”
12 Even (L)darkness is not dark [f]to You,
And the night is as bright as the day.
(M)Darkness and light are alike to You.
13 For You (N)created my innermost parts;
You (O)wove me in my mother’s womb.
14 I will give thanks to You, because [g]I am awesomely and wonderfully made;
(P)Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
15 My [h](Q)frame was not hidden from You
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully formed in the (R)depths of the earth;
16 Your (S)eyes have seen my formless substance;
And in (T)Your book were written
All the (U)days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them.
