Psalms 139

Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

13 Ref For Thou -- Thou hast possessed my reins, Thou dost cover me in my mother's belly.

14 Ref I confess Thee, because that `with' wonders I have been distinguished. Wonderful `are' Thy works, And my soul is knowing `it' well.

15 Ref My substance was not hid from Thee, When I was made in secret, Curiously wrought in the lower part of earth.

16 Ref Mine unformed substance Thine eyes saw, And on Thy book all of them are written, The days they were formed -- And not one among them.

17 Ref And to me how precious have been Thy thoughts, O God, how great hath been their sum!

Bible in Basic English (BBE)

13 Ref My flesh was made by you, and my parts joined together in my mother's body.

14 Ref I will give you praise, for I am strangely and delicately formed; your works are great wonders, and of this my soul is fully conscious.

15 Ref My frame was not unseen by you when I was made secretly, and strangely formed in the lowest parts of the earth.

16 Ref Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book all my days were recorded, even those which were purposed before they had come into being.

17 Ref How dear are your thoughts to me, O God! how great is the number of them!

World English Bible (WEB)

13 Ref For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother's womb.

14 Ref I will give thanks to you, For I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well.

15 Ref My frame wasn't hidden from you, When I was made in secret, Woven together in the depths of the earth.

16 Ref Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, The days that were ordained for me, When as yet there were none of them.

17 Ref How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them!
