Updated King James Bible 1850 Edition (KJV)

1 David praiseth God for his allseeing providence, 17 and for his infinite mercies. 19 He defieth the wicked. 23 He prayeth for sincerety.

139:1 ¶ {To the chief Musician, 5329 z8764 A Psalm 4210 of David.} 1732 O LORD, 3068 thou hast searched 2713 z8804 me, and known 3045 z8799 [me].

139:2 Thou x859 knowest 3045 z8804 my downsitting 3427 z8800 and mine uprising, 6965 z8800 thou understandest 995 z8804 my thought 7454 afar off. 7350 x4480

139:3 Thou compassest 2219 z8765 my path 734 and my lying down, 7252 and art acquainted 5532 z8689 [with] all x3605 my ways. 1870

139:4 For x3588 [there is] not x369 a word 4405 in my tongue, 3956 [but], lo, x2005 O LORD, 3068 thou knowest 3045 z8804 it altogether. x3605

139:5 Thou hast beset 6696 z8804 me behind 268 and before, 6924 and laid 7896 z8799 thine hand 3709 upon x5921 me.

139:6 [Such] knowledge 1847 [is] too wonderful 6383 z8675 for x4480 me; it is high, 7682 z8738 I cannot 3201 z8799 x3808 [attain] unto it.

139:7 Whither x575 shall I go y3212 z8799 x1980 from thy spirit? 7307 x4480 or whither x575 shall I flee 1272 z8799 from thy presence? 6440 x4480

139:8 If x518 I ascend up 5266 z8799 into heaven, 8064 thou x859 [art] there: x8033 if I make my bed 3331 z8686 in hell, 7585 behold, x2009 thou [art there].

139:9 [If] I take 5375 z8799 the wings 3671 of the morning, 7837 [and] dwell 7931 z8799 in the uttermost parts 319 of the sea; 3220

139:10 Even x1571 there x8033 shall thy hand 3027 lead 5148 z8686 me, and thy right hand 3225 shall hold 270 z8799 me.

139:11 If I say, 559 z8799 Surely x389 the darkness 2822 shall cover 7779 z8799 me; even the night 3915 shall be light 216 about x1157 me. y1157

139:12 Yea, x1571 the darkness 2822 hideth 2821 z8686 not x3808 from x4480 thee; but the night 3915 shineth 215 z8686 as the day: 3117 the darkness 2825 and the light 219 [are] both alike [to thee].

139:13 For x3588 thou x859 hast possessed 7069 z8804 my reins: 3629 thou hast covered 5526 z8799 me in my mother's 517 womb. 990

139:14 I will praise 3034 z8686 thee; for x5921 x3588 I am fearfully 3372 z8737 [and] wonderfully x6395 made: y6395 z8738 marvelous 6381 z8737 [are] thy works; 4639 and [that] my soul 5315 knoweth 3045 z8802 right well. 3966

139:15 My substance 6108 was not x3808 hid 3582 z8738 from x4480 thee, when x834 I was made 6213 z8795 in secret, 5643 [and] curiously wrought 7551 z8795 in the lowest parts 8482 of the earth. 776

139:16 Thine eyes 5869 did see 7200 z8804 my substance, yet being unperfect; 1564 and in x5921 thy book 5612 all x3605 [my members] were written, 3789 z8735 [which] in continuance 3117 were fashioned, 3335 z8795 when [as yet there was] none 259 x3808 of them.

139:17 How x4100 precious 3365 z8804 also are thy thoughts 7454 unto me, O God! 410 how x4100 great 6105 z8804 is the sum 7218 of them!

139:18 [If] I should count 5608 z8799 them, they are more in number 7235 z8799 than the sand: 2344 x4480 when I awake, 6974 z8689 I am still 5750 with thee. x5973

139:19 Surely x518 thou wilt slay 6991 z8799 the wicked, 7563 O God: 433 depart 5493 z8798 from x4480 me therefore, ye bloody 1818 men. y582 x376

139:20 For x834 they speak 559 z8799 against thee wickedly, 4209 [and] thine enemies 6145 take 5375 z8804 [thy name] in vain. 7723

139:21 Do not x3808 I hate 8130 z8799 them, O LORD, 3068 that hate 8130 z8764 thee? and am not I grieved 6962 z8709 with those that rise up y8618 against x8618 thee?

139:22 I hate 8130 z8804 them with perfect 8503 hatred: 8135 I count x1961 them mine enemies. 341 z8802

139:23 Search 2713 z8798 me, O God, 410 and know 3045 z8798 my heart: 3824 try 974 z8798 me, and know 3045 z8798 my thoughts: 8312

139:24 And see 7200 z8798 if x518 [there be any] wicked 6090 way 1870 in me, and lead 5148 z8798 me in the way 1870 everlasting. 5769
