²⁷ But I know your sitting down, and your going out, and your coming in, and your raging against me.

⁶ Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.

¹⁹ Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you be when you go out.

⁸ Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, From this time forth, and forevermore.

¹ > Yahweh, you have searched me, And you know me.

² You know my sitting down and my rising up. You perceive my thoughts from afar.

³ You search out my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways.

⁴ For there is not a word on my tongue, But, behold, Yahweh, you know it altogether.

⁵ You hem me in behind and before. You laid your hand on me.

⁶ This knowledge is beyond me. It's lofty. I can't attain it.

⁷ Where could I go from your Spirit? Or where could I flee from your presence?

⁸ If I ascend up into heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, you are there!

⁹ If I take the wings of the dawn, And settle in the uttermost parts of the sea;

¹⁰ Even there your hand will lead me, And your right hand will hold me.

¹¹ If I say, "Surely the darkness will overwhelm me; The light around me will be night;"

²⁸ But I know your sitting down, and your going out, and your coming in, and your raging against me.

²⁹ Because of your raging against me, and because your arrogance is come up into my ears, therefore will I put my hook in your nose, and my bridle in your lips, and I will turn you back by the way by which you came.

²³ Am I a God at hand, says Yahweh, and not a God afar off?

²⁴ Can any hide himself in secret places so that I shall not see him? says Yahweh. Don't I fill heaven and earth? says Yahweh.
