²¹ For the ways of man are before the eyes of Yahweh. He examines all his paths.

¹³ There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

¹⁷ For my eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from my face, neither is their iniquity concealed from my eyes.

³ Yahweh's eyes are everywhere, Keeping watch on the evil and the good.

²¹ "For his eyes are on the ways of a man, He sees all his goings.

⁴ Doesn't he see my ways, And number all my steps?

² They don't consider in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness. Now their own deeds have engulfed them. They are before my face.

¹⁹ great in counsel, and mighty in work; whose eyes are open on all the ways of the sons of men, to give everyone according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:

⁴ Yahweh is in his holy temple. Yahweh is on his throne in heaven. His eyes observe. His eyes examine the children of men.

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;"

¹² Even the darkness doesn't hide from you, But the night shines as the day. The darkness is like light to you.

¹⁶⁸ I have obeyed your precepts and your testimonies, For all my ways are before you.

³ You have proved my heart; you have visited me in the night; You have tried me, and found nothing; I have resolved that my mouth shall not disobey.

¹⁶ But now you number my steps. Don't you watch over my sin?

⁹ For the eyes of Yahweh run back and forth throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein you have done foolishly; for from henceforth you shall have wars.

²³ I will kill her children with Death, and all the assemblies will know that I am he who searches the minds and hearts. I will give to each one of you according to your deeds.

¹⁰ I, Yahweh, search the mind, I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.

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.
