1To victory, the psalm of David. Lord, thou hast proved me, and hast known me;2thou hast known my sitting, and my rising again. Thou hast understood my thoughts from [a] far;3thou hast inquired of my path and my cord. And thou hast before-seen all my ways;4for no word is in my tongue. Lo! Lord, thou hast known all things,5the new things and eld [or old]; thou hast formed me, and hast set thine hand on me.6Thy knowing is made wonderful of me; it is comforted, and I shall not be able to it.7Whither shall I go from thy spirit; and whither shall I flee from thy face?8If I shall ascend [or go up] into heaven, thou art there; if I shall go down into hell, thou art present.9If I shall take my feathers full early; and shall dwell in the last parts of the sea.10And soothly thither thine hand shall lead me forth; and thy right hand shall hold me.11And I said, In hap darknesses shall defoul me; and the night is my lightening in my delights.12For why darknesses shall not be made dark from thee, and the night shall be lightened as the day; as the darknesses thereof, so and the light thereof.13For thou haddest in possession my reins; thou tookest me up from the womb of my mother.14I shall acknowledge to thee, for thou art magnified dreadfully; thy works be wonderful, and my soul shall know that full much.15My bone, which thou madest in private, is not hid from thee; and my substance formed in the lower parts of [the] earth.16Thine eyes saw mine unperfect thing, and all men shall be written in thy book; days shall be formed, and no man is in those [or them].17Forsooth, God, thy friends be made honourable full much to me; the prince-hood of them is comforted full much.18I shall number them, and they shall be multiplied above the gravel; I rose up, and yet I am with thee.19For thou, God, shalt slay sinners; ye men-quellers, bow away from me.20For they say in thought; Take they their cities in vanity.21Lord, whether I hated not them that hated thee; and I failed, that is, mourned greatly, on thine enemies?22By perfect hatred I hated them; they were made enemies to me.23God, prove thou me, and know thou mine heart; ask thou me, and know thou my paths.24And see thou, if way of wicked-ness is in me; and lead thou me forth in [the] everlasting way.
