Psalms 139:18


Psalms 139:17 Psalms 139:18 (KJV) Psalms 139:19
How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
[If] I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.
Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.
