Psalms 139:3–7 · Berean Standard Bible

3 You search out my path and my lying down; You are aware of all my ways.

4 Even before a word is on my tongue, You know all about it, O LORD.

5 You hem me in behind and before; You have laid Your hand upon me.

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.

7 Where can I go to escape Your Spirit? Where can I flee from Your presence?
