1. Lord, You have searched me and known me.
2. You know when I sit down and when I stand up;You understand my thoughts from far away.
3. You observe my travels and my rest;You are aware of all my ways.
4. Before a word is on my tongue,You know all about it, Lord.
5. You have encircled me;You have placed Your hand on me.
6. This extraordinary knowledge is beyond me.It is lofty; I am unable to reach it.
7. Where can I go to escape Your Spirit?Where can I flee from Your presence?
8. If I go up to heaven, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, You are there.
9. If I live at the eastern horizonor settle at the western limits,
10. even there Your hand will lead me;Your right hand will hold on to me.
