For the end, A Psalm of David. O Lord, You have proved me, and known me. You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thoughts long before. You have traced my path and my bed, and have foreseen all my ways. For there is no unrighteous word on my tongue: behold, O Lord, You have known all things, the last and the first: You have fashioned me, and laid Your hand upon me. The knowledge of You is too wonderful for me; it is very difficult, I cannot [attain] to it. Where shall I go from Your Spirit? And to where shall I flee from Your presence? If I should go up to heaven, You are there: if I should go down to hell, You are present. If I should spread my wings [to fly] straight forward, and sojourn at the extremity of the sea, [it would be vain], for even there Your hand would guide me, and Your right hand would hold me. When I said, Surely the darkness will cover me; even the night [was] light in my luxury. For darkness will not be darkness with You; but night will be light as day. As its darkness, so shall its light [be to You]. For You, O Lord, have possessed my reins; You have helped me from my mother's womb. I will give You thanks; for You are fearfully wondrous; wondrous are Your works; and my soul knows [it] well. My bones, which You made in secret, were not hidden from You, nor my substance, in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my unwrought [substance], and all [men] shall be written in Your book; they shall be formed by day, though [there should for a time] be no one among them. But Your friends, O God, have been greatly honored by me; their rule has been greatly strengthened. I will number them, and they shall be multiplied beyond the sand; I awake, and am still with You. Oh that You would slay the wicked, O God. Depart from me, you men of blood! For you will say concerning [their] thoughts, [that] they shall take your cities in vain. Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hate You? And [have I not] wasted away because of Your enemies? I have hated them with perfect hatred; they were counted as my enemies. Prove me, O God, and know my heart; examine me, and know my paths; and see if [there is any] way of iniquity in me, and lead me in an everlasting way.
