1. To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.
2. Thou knowest my down-sitting and my up rising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
3. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
4. For there is not a word on my tongue, but lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
5. Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thy hand upon me.
