Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?

My frame was not hidden from You when I was made in secret and skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth.

Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed; and in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.

Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

I hate them with perfect hatred; I count them my enemies.

I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my thoughts;

Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

And see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
