Psalms 139
Book of Psalms
Psalms 139:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast
searched me, and known me.
2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my
thought afar off.
3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all
my ways.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it
altogether.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain
unto it.
7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy
presence?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell,
behold, thou art there.
9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of
the sea;
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be
light about me.
12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the
day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.
13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's
womb.
14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:
marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and
curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 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.
17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is
the sum of them!
18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I
awake, I am still with thee.
19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye
bloody men.
20 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name
in vain.
21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with
those that rise up against thee?
22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way
everlasting.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
