O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.

Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.

Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.

Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?

Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps?

What then shall I do when God riseth up? and when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?

For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings.

There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.

I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.

Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.

The LORD God of gods, the LORD God of gods, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if it be in rebellion, or if in transgression against the LORD, (save us not this day,)

That we have built us an altar to turn from following the LORD, or if to offer thereon burnt offering or meat offering, or if to offer peace offerings thereon, let the LORD himself require it;

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
