omukono gwo ogwa ddyo gunannywezanga.
11Bwe nnaagamba nti, “Ekizikiza kimbuutikire,
n’obudde obw’emisana bwe ndimu bufuuke ekiro.”
12139:12 Yob 34:22; Dan 2:22Naye era ekizikiza gy’oli tekiba kizikiza,

16Wandaba nga si natondebwa.
Ennaku zange zonna ze wanteekerateekera
zawandiikibwa mu kitabo kyo.
17139:17 Zab 40:5By’ondowooleza nga bya muwendo munene, Ayi Katonda!
Omuwendo gwabyo munene!
18Singa ngezaako okubibala
bisinga omusenyu obungi.
Ne bwe ngolokoka mu makya
oba okyandowoozaako.
19139:19 a Is 11:4 b Zab 119:115Abakola ebibi batte, Ayi Katonda;
abasajja abassi b’abantu banveeko.
20139:20 Yud 15Abantu abo bakwogerako bibi;
bakwegulumiririzaako mu butategeera bwabwe.
21139:21 2By 19:2; Zab 31:6; 119:113; 119:158Abakukyawa, Ayi Mukama, nange mbakyawa;

era onkulembere mu kkubo erintuusa mu bulamu obutaggwaawo.
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.
2Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
3Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.139.3 compassest: or, winnowest
4For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
5Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
7Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
8If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
9If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
10Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
11If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.
12Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.139.12 hideth…: Heb. darkeneth not139.12 the darkness and…: Heb. as is the darkness, so is the light
13For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.
14I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.139.14 right…: Heb. greatly
15My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.139.15 substance: or, strength, or, body
16Thine 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.139.16 all…: Heb. all of them139.16 which…: or, what days they should be fashioned
17How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
18If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.
19Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.
20For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.
21Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
22I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
23Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
24And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.139.24 wicked…: Heb. way of pain, or, grief
