18 He searches out the abyss and the human heart;
    he understands their innermost secrets.
For the Most High knows all that may be known;
    he sees from of old the things that are to come.[a]

    and he reveals the traces of hidden things.
20 No thought escapes him,
    and nothing is hidden from him.
