Psalms 139:10-20 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

10. Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

11. If I say, Surely the darkness shall overwhelm me, and the light about me shall be night;

12. Even the darkness hideth not from thee, but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

13. For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

14. I will give thanks unto thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: wonderful are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

15. My frame was not hidden from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

16. Thine eyes did see mine unperfect substance, and in thy book were all my members written, which day by day were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

17. How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

18. If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.

19. Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloodthirsty men.

20. For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.
