Psalms 139
1 To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David. O Lord, you have knowledge of me, searching out all my secrets.
Untuk pemimpin biduan. Mazmur Daud. TUHAN, Engkau menyelidiki dan mengenal aku;
2 You have knowledge when I am seated and when I get up, you see my thoughts from far away.
Engkau mengetahui, kalau aku duduk atau berdiri, Engkau mengerti pikiranku dari jauh.
3 You keep watch over my steps and my sleep, and have knowledge of all my ways.
Engkau memeriksa aku, kalau aku berjalan dan berbaring, segala jalanku Kaumaklumi.
4 For there is not a word on my tongue which is not clear to you, O Lord.
Sebab sebelum lidahku mengeluarkan perkataan, sesungguhnya, semuanya telah Kauketahui, ya TUHAN.
5 I am shut in by you on every side, and you have put your hand on me.
Dari belakang dan dari depan Engkau mengurung aku, dan Engkau menaruh tangan-Mu ke atasku.
6 Such knowledge is a wonder greater than my powers; it is so high that I may not come near it.
Terlalu ajaib bagiku pengetahuan itu, terlalu tinggi, tidak sanggup aku mencapainya.
7 Where may I go from your spirit? how may I go in flight from you?
Ke mana aku dapat pergi menjauhi roh-Mu, ke mana aku dapat lari dari hadapan-Mu?
8 If I go up to heaven, you are there: or if I make my bed in the underworld, you are there. (Sheol h7585)
Jika aku mendaki ke langit, Engkau di sana; jika aku menaruh tempat tidurku di dunia orang mati, di situpun Engkau. (Sheol h7585)
9 If I take the wings of the morning, and go to the farthest parts of the sea;
Jika aku terbang dengan sayap fajar, dan membuat kediaman di ujung laut,
10 Even there will I be guided by your hand, and your right hand will keep me.
juga di sana tangan-Mu akan menuntun aku, dan tangan kanan-Mu memegang aku.
11 If I say, Only let me be covered by the dark, and the light about me be night;
Jika aku berkata: "Biarlah kegelapan saja melingkupi aku, dan terang sekelilingku menjadi malam,"
12 Even the dark is not dark to you; the night is as bright as the day: for dark and light are the same to you.
maka kegelapanpun tidak menggelapkan bagi-Mu, dan malam menjadi terang seperti siang; kegelapan sama seperti terang.
13 My flesh was made by you, and my parts joined together in my mother's body.
Sebab Engkaulah yang membentuk buah pinggangku, menenun aku dalam kandungan ibuku.
14 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.
Aku bersyukur kepada-Mu oleh karena kejadianku dahsyat dan ajaib; ajaib apa yang Kaubuat, dan jiwaku benar-benar menyadarinya.
15 My frame was not unseen by you when I was made secretly, and strangely formed in the lowest parts of the earth.
Tulang-tulangku tidak terlindung bagi-Mu, ketika aku dijadikan di tempat yang tersembunyi, dan aku direkam di bagian-bagian bumi yang paling bawah;
16 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.
mata-Mu melihat selagi aku bakal anak, dan dalam kitab-Mu semuanya tertulis hari-hari yang akan dibentuk, sebelum ada satupun dari padanya.
17 How dear are your thoughts to me, O God! how great is the number of them!
Dan bagiku, betapa sulitnya pikiran-Mu, ya Allah! Betapa besar jumlahnya!
18 If I made up their number, it would be more than the grains of sand; when I am awake, I am still with you.
Jika aku mau menghitungnya, itu lebih banyak dari pada pasir. Apabila aku berhenti, masih saja aku bersama-sama Engkau.
19 If only you would put the sinners to death, O God; go far from me, you men of blood.
Sekiranya Engkau mematikan orang fasik, ya Allah, sehingga menjauh dari padaku penumpah-penumpah darah,
20 For they go against you with evil designs, and your haters make sport of your name.
yang berkata-kata dusta terhadap Engkau, dan melawan Engkau dengan sia-sia.
21 Are not your haters hated by me, O Lord? are not those who are lifted up against you a cause of grief to me?
Masakan aku tidak membenci orang-orang yang membenci Engkau, ya TUHAN, dan tidak merasa jemu kepada orang-orang yang bangkit melawan Engkau?
22 My hate for them is complete; my thoughts of them are as if they were making war on me.
Aku sama sekali membenci mereka, mereka menjadi musuhku.
23 O God, let the secrets of my heart be uncovered, and let my wandering thoughts be tested:
Selidikilah aku, ya Allah, dan kenallah hatiku, ujilah aku dan kenallah pikiran-pikiranku;
24 See if there is any way of sorrow in me, and be my guide in the eternal way.
lihatlah, apakah jalanku serong, dan tuntunlah aku di jalan yang kekal!
