    1<To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David.> O Lord, you have knowledge of me, searching out all my secrets.

    2You have knowledge when I am seated and when I get up, you see my thoughts from far away.

    3You keep watch over my steps and my sleep, and have knowledge of all my ways.

    4For there is not a word on my tongue which is not clear to you, O Lord.

    5I am shut in by you on every side, and you have put your hand on me.

    6Such knowledge is a wonder greater than my powers; it is so high that I may not come near it.

    7Where may I go from your spirit? how may I go in flight from you?

    8If I go up to heaven, you are there: or if I make my bed in the underworld, you are there.
