1 [To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.] Jehovah, thou hast searched me, and known {me}.

2 *Thou* knowest my down-sitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off;

3 Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways;

4 For there is not yet a word on my tongue, {but} lo, O Jehovah, thou knowest it altogether.

5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thy hand upon me.

6 O knowledge too wonderful for me! it is high, I cannot {attain} unto it.

7 Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? and whither flee from thy presence?

8 If I ascend up into the heavens thou art there; or if I make my bed in Sheol, behold, thou {art there};

9 {If} I take the wings of the dawn {and} dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,

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

11 And if I say, Surely darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night;

12 Even darkness hideth not from thee, and the night shineth as the day: the darkness is as the light.

13 For thou hast possessed my reins; thou didst cover me in my mother's womb.

14 I will praise thee, for I am fearfully, wonderfully made. Marvellous are thy works; and {that} my soul knoweth right well.

15 My bones were not hidden from thee when I was made in secret, curiously wrought in the lower parts of the earth.

16 Thine eyes did see my unformed substance, and in thy book all {my members} were written; {during many} days were they fashioned, when {as yet} there was none of them.

17 But how precious are thy thoughts unto me, O *God! how great is the sum of them!

18 {If} I would count them, they are more in number than the sand. When I awake, I am still with thee.

19 Oh that thou wouldest slay the wicked, O +God! And ye men of blood, depart from me.

20 For they speak of thee wickedly, they take {thy name} in vain, thine enemies.

21 Do not I hate them, O Jehovah, that hate thee? and do not I loathe them that rise up against thee?

22 I hate them with perfect hatred; I account them mine enemies.

23 Search me, O *God, and know my heart; prove me, and know my thoughts;

24 And see if there be any grievous way in me; and lead me in the way everlasting.

1 耶和华啊！ 你鉴察了我， 你认识我。（本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题）

2 我坐下， 我起来， 你都知道； 你在远处就明白我的意念。

3 我行路， 我躺卧， 你都细察； 我的一切行为， 你都熟悉。

4 耶和华啊！ 我的舌头还没有发言， 你已经完全知道了。

5 你在我前后围绕着我， 你的手按在我身上。

6 这样的知识奇妙， 是我不能理解的； 高超， 是我不能达到的。

7 我到哪里去躲避你的灵？我往哪里去逃避你的面呢？

8 如果我升到天上， 你在那里； 如果我在阴间下榻， 你也在那里。

9 如果我展开清晨的翅膀， 飞到海的极处居住，

10 就是在那里， 你的手仍必引导我， 你的右手也必扶持我。

11 如果我说： "愿黑暗遮盖我， 愿我周围的亮光变成黑夜。"

12 但对你来说， 黑暗也不算是黑暗， 黑夜必如同白昼一样发亮， 黑暗和光明， 在你看来都是一样的。

13 我的脏腑是你所造的， 在我母腹中你塑造了我。

14 我要称谢你， 因为我的受造奇妙可畏； 你的作为奇妙， 这是我深深知道的。

15 我在隐密处被造， 在地的深处被塑造， 那时， 我的形体不能向你隐藏。

16 我未成形的身体， 你的眼睛早已看见； 为我所定的日子， 我还未度过一日， 都完全记在你的册上了。

17 神啊！ 你的意念对我多么珍贵（"珍贵"或译： "深奥"）， 数目何等众多。

18 如果我数点， 它们比海沙更多； 我睡醒的时候， 仍然与你同在。

19 神啊！ 甚愿你杀戮恶人； 你们流人血的啊， 离开我去吧！

20 他们恶意说话顶撞你， 你的仇敌妄称你的名。

21 耶和华啊！ 恨恶你的， 我怎能不恨恶他们呢？起来攻击你的， 我怎能不厌恶他们呢？

22 我极度恨恶他们， 把他们视为我的仇敌。

23 神啊！ 求你鉴察我， 知道我的心思； 试验我， 知道我的意念。

24 看看我里面有什么恶行没有， 引导我走永恒的道路。
