1 Yahweh, you have searched me, And you know me.

1 לַ֭מְנַצֵּחַ לְדָוִ֣ד מִזְמֹ֑ור יְהוָ֥ה חֲ֝קַרְתַּ֗נִי וַתֵּדָֽע׃

2 You know my sitting down and my rising up. You perceive my thoughts from afar.

2 אַתָּ֣ה יָ֭דַעְתָּ שִׁבְתִּ֣י וְקוּמִ֑י בַּ֥נְתָּה לְ֝רֵעִ֗י מֵרָחֹֽוק׃

3 You search out my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways.

3 אָרְחִ֣י וְרִבְעִ֣י זֵרִ֑יתָ וְֽכָל־דְּרָכַ֥י הִסְכַּֽנְתָּה׃

4 For there is not a word on my tongue, But, behold, Yahweh, you know it altogether.

4 כִּ֤י אֵ֣ין מִ֭לָּה בִּלְשֹׁונִ֑י הֵ֥ן יְ֝הוָ֗ה יָדַ֥עְתָּ כֻלָּֽהּ׃

5 You hem me in behind and before. You laid your hand on me.

5 אָחֹ֣ור וָקֶ֣דֶם צַרְתָּ֑נִי וַתָּ֖שֶׁת עָלַ֣י כַּפֶּֽכָה׃

6 This knowledge is beyond me. It's lofty. I can't attain it.

6 פִּלְאִיָּה פְּלִ֣יאָֽה דַ֣עַת מִמֶּ֑נִּי נִ֝שְׂגְּבָ֗ה לֹא־א֥וּכַֽל לָֽהּ׃

7 Where could I go from your Spirit? Or where could I flee from your presence?

7 אָ֭נָ֥ה אֵלֵ֣ךְ מֵרוּחֶ֑ךָ וְ֝אָ֗נָה מִפָּנֶ֥יךָ אֶבְרָֽח׃

8 If I ascend up into heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, you are there!

8 אִם־אֶסַּ֣ק מַיִם שָׁ֣ם אָ֑תָּה וְאַצִּ֖יעָה שְּׁאֹ֣ול הִנֶּֽךָּ׃

9 If I take the wings of the dawn, And settle in the uttermost parts of the sea;

9 אֶשָּׂ֥א כַנְפֵי־שָׁ֑חַר אֶ֝שְׁכְּנָ֗ה בְּאַחֲרִ֥ית יָֽם׃

10 Even there your hand will lead me, And your right hand will hold me.

10 גַּםשָ֭־ם יָדְךָ֣ תַנְחֵ֑נִי וְֽתֹאחֲזֵ֥נִי יְמִינֶֽךָ׃

11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will overwhelm me; The light around me will be night;"

11 וָ֭אֹמַר אַךְ־חֹ֣שֶׁךְ יְשׁוּפֵ֑נִי וְ֝לַ֗יְלָה אֹ֣ור בַּעֲדֵֽנִי׃

12 Even the darkness doesn't hide from you, But the night shines as the day. The darkness is like light to you.

12 גַּם־חֹשֶׁךְ֮ לֹֽא־יַחְשִׁ֪יךְ מִ֫מֶּ֥ךָ וְ֭לַיְלָה כַּיֹּ֣ום יָאִ֑יר כַּ֝חֲשֵׁיכָ֗ה כָּאֹורָֽה׃

13 For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother's womb.

13 כִּֽי־אַ֭תָּה קָנִ֣יתָ כִלְיֹתָ֑י תְּ֝סֻכֵּ֗נִי בְּבֶ֣טֶן אִמִּֽי׃

14 I will give thanks to you, For I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well.

14 אֹֽודְךָ֗ עַ֤ל כִּ֥י נֹורָאֹ֗ות נִ֫פְלֵ֥יתִי נִפְלָאִ֥ים מַעֲשֶׂ֑יךָ וְ֝נַפְשִׁ֗י יֹדַ֥עַת מְאֹֽד׃

15 My frame wasn't hidden from you, When I was made in secret, Woven together in the depths of the earth.

15 לֹא־נִכְחַ֥ד עָצְמִ֗י מִ֫מֶּ֥ךָּ אֲשֶׁר־עֻשֵּׂ֥יתִי בַסֵּ֑תֶר רֻ֝קַּ֗מְתִּי בְּֽתַחְתִּיֹּ֥ות אָֽרֶץ׃

16 Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, The days that were ordained for me, When as yet there were none of them.

16 גָּלְמִ֤י׀ רָ֘א֤וּ עֵינֶ֗יךָ וְעַֽל־סִפְרְךָ֮ כֻּלָּ֪ם יִכָּ֫תֵ֥בוּ יָמִ֥ים יֻצָּ֑רוּ וְלֹא וְלֹ֖ו אֶחָ֣ד בָּהֶֽם׃

17 How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them!

17 וְלִ֗י מַה־יָּקְר֣וּ רֵעֶ֣יךָ אֵ֑ל מֶ֥ה עָ֝צְמוּ רָאשֵׁיהֶֽם׃

18 If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand. When I wake up, I am still with you.

18 אֶ֭סְפְּרֵם מֵחֹ֣ול יִרְבּ֑וּן הֱ֝קִיצֹ֗תִי וְעֹודִ֥י עִמָּֽךְ׃

19 If only you, God, would kill the wicked. Get away from me, you bloodthirsty men!

19 אִם־תִּקְטֹ֖ל אֱלֹ֥והַּ׀ רָשָׁ֑ע וְאַנְשֵׁ֥י דָ֝מִ֗ים ס֣וּרוּ מֶֽנִּי׃

20 For they speak against you wickedly. Your enemies take your name in vain.

20 אֲשֶׁ֣ר יֹ֭אמְרֻךָ לִמְזִמָּ֑ה נָשֻׂ֖א לַשָּׁ֣וְא עָרֶֽיךָ׃

21 Yahweh, don't I hate those who hate you? Am I not grieved with those who rise up against you?

21 הֲלֹֽוא־מְשַׂנְאֶ֖יךָ יְהוָ֥ה׀ אֶשְׂנָ֑א וּ֝בִתְקֹומְמֶ֗יךָ אֶתְקֹוטָֽט׃

22 I hate them with perfect hatred. They have become my enemies.

22 תַּכְלִ֣ית שִׂנְאָ֣ה שְׂנֵאתִ֑ים לְ֝אֹויְבִ֗ים הָ֣יוּ לִֽי׃

23 Search me, God, and know my heart. Try me, and know my thoughts.

23 חָקְרֵ֣נִי אֵ֭ל וְדַ֣ע לְבָבִ֑י בְּ֝חָנֵ֗נִי וְדַ֣ע שַׂרְעַפָּֽי׃

24 See if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the everlasting way.

24 וּרְאֵ֗ה אִם־דֶּֽרֶךְ־עֹ֥צֶב בִּ֑י וּ֝נְחֵ֗נִי בְּדֶ֣רֶךְ עֹולָֽם׃
