{Verses
1-6: Omniscience of God}
1~~
To the Chief Musician, a Psalm of David.
O
Jehovah/God,
you
have searched me,
and
known me.
2~~
You have known me when I sit down
and
when I get up {changes of attitude},
you
understand my thoughts from eternity past.
3~~
You have computed my journey. . .
my
lying down. . .
in
fact you are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
4~~
Even before there is not a word on my tongue,
Jehovah/God,
you have always known it.
5~~You have surrounded me with a wall of fire {behind and in front}, obviously You have laid Your hand on me {logistical grace}.
6~~Such
knowledge {Omniscience of God}
is
too wonderful for me.
It
is too high, I cannot attain it.
7^~Where
can I go/escape from Your {Holy} Spirit {ruwach}?
Where
can I flee from Your presence?
8^~
If I ascend to heaven, You are there.
if
I make my bed in Sheol {hades/hell},
You
are there too.
9-10^~
If I take the wing with the dawn . . .
if
I live in the remotest part of the sea . . . 10^~
even
there, Your hand will lead me,
Your
right hand will lay hold on me.
11-12^~
If I say, 'Surely the darkness
will
bruise/conceal/cover me {undeserved suffering},
and
the light around me will be night,12^~
from
you . . . even the darkness is not dark.
And
the night {undeserved suffering}
is
as the day.
To
you, darkness and light are both alike.
13~~It
was You who possessed
my
emotions {kilyah - idiom: literally the kidneys}
{in fellowship God directs your emotions so you can share His
happiness - Spiritual Grace}
You
have interwoven/covered me
in
my mother's womb {physiological grace}
{everything needed to take in doctrine, God prepared even in your
mother's womb}.
14^~I
will give thanks/praise You!
For
I am fearfully/awesomely, wondrously made.
Wonderful
are Your works.
And,
my soul knows it very well.
15-16^~
My bones are not hidden from You
when
I was made in secret
and
skillfully manufactured
in
the depths of the earth 16^~
Your
eyes have seen
my
unformed substance {the embryo}.
Therefore,
they were all written in Your book.
The
days, which were ordained for me.
When
as yet there was not
one
of them.
17^~Oh
'El/God how precious also are
Your
thoughts me!
How
great their number!
18^~How
vast is the sum of them {all God's doctrines}
if
I should count them,
they
would out number the grains of sand.
When
I awaken, I am still with You.
19-20^^If
You would only slay the wicked,
O
'Elowahh/Godhead
you
murders, away from me! . . . 20^^
who
invoke You for intrigue!
Your
enemies who swear by You falsely.
21^^You
know I hate those who hate You,
O
Jehovah/God!
and
loathe Your adversaries.
22^^
I feel a complete hatred
{toward their thoughts and actions against God}.
I
count them my enemies.
23^~Examine/test
me, O El {God},
and
know my 'right lobe'/heart.
Probe/test
me and know my anxious thoughts.
24^~And
see if there is any way of pain in me
{undeserved suffering}
and
lead me in the everlasting Way.
