Psalms 139:13-24 King James Version with Strong's Concordance (STRONG)

13 For thou hast possessed H7069 my reins: H3629 thou hast covered H5526 me in my mother's H517 womb. H990

14 I will praise H3034 thee; for I am fearfully H3372 and wonderfully made: H6395 marvellous H6381 are thy works; H4639 and that my soul H5315 knoweth H3045 right well. H3966

15 My substance H6108 was not hid H3582 from thee, when I was made H6213 in secret, H5643 and curiously wrought H7551 in the lowest parts H8482 of the earth. H776

16 Thine eyes H5869 did see H7200 my substance, yet being unperfect; H1564 and in thy book H5612 all my members were written, H3789 which in continuance H3117 were fashioned, H3335 when as yet there was none H259 of them.

17 How precious H3365 also are thy thoughts H7454 unto me, O God! H410 how great H6105 is the sum H7218 of them!

18 If I should count H5608 them, they are more in number H7235 than the sand: H2344 when I awake, H6974 I am still H5750 with thee.

19 Surely thou wilt slay H6991 the wicked, H7563 O God: H433 depart H5493 from me therefore, ye bloody H1818 men. H582

20 For they speak H559 against thee wickedly, H4209 and thine enemies H6145 take H5375 thy name in vain. H7723

21 Do not I hate H8130 them, O LORD, H3068 that hate H8130 thee? and am not I grieved H6962 with those that rise up H8618 against thee?

22 I hate H8130 them with perfect H8503 hatred: H8135 I count them mine enemies. H341

23 Search H2713 me, O God, H410 and know H3045 my heart: H3824 try H974 me, and know H3045 my thoughts: H8312

24 And see H7200 if there be any wicked H6090 way H1870 in me, and lead H5148 me in the way H1870 everlasting. H5769

Commentary on Psalms 139 Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible


PSALM 139

Ps 139:1-24. After presenting the sublime doctrines of God's omnipresence and omniscience, the Psalmist appeals to Him, avowing his innocence, his abhorrence of the wicked, and his ready submission to the closest scrutiny. Admonition to the wicked and comfort to the pious are alike implied inferences from these doctrines.
