Psalms 139:12

Yahweh, you have searched me, and you know me.

Yahweh’s eyes are everywhere, keeping watch on the evil and the good.

“Ah Lord Yahweh! Behold, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for you.

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God.

“For his eyes are on the ways of a man. He sees all his goings.

There is no darkness, nor thick gloom, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.

For the ways of man are before Yahweh’s eyes. He examines all his paths.

For God will bring every work into judgment, with every hidden thing, whether it is good, or whether it is evil.

“I, Yahweh, search the mind. I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.”

He reveals the deep and secret things. He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.

But Yahweh said to Samuel, “Don’t look on his face, or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for I don’t see as man sees. For man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart.”

You, Solomon my son, know the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for Yahweh searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.

then hear from heaven your dwelling place and forgive, and render to every man according to all his ways, whose heart you know (for you, even you only, know the hearts of the children of men)

The friendship of Yahweh is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant.

won’t God search this out? For he knows the secrets of the heart.

You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.

If I ascend up into heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, you are there!

Sheol and Abaddon are before Yahweh— how much more then the hearts of the children of men!

Can anyone hide himself in secret places so that I can’t see him?” says Yahweh. “Don’t I fill heaven and earth?” says Yahweh.

But you, when you pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

so that you are not seen by men to be fasting, but by your Father who is in secret, and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.

in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Jesus Christ.

For we must all be revealed before the judgment seat of Christ that each one may receive the things in the body according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow.

I will kill her children with Death, and all the assemblies will know that I am he who searches the minds and hearts. I will give to each one of you according to your deeds.

The secret things belong to Yahweh our God; but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.

When they cried out to Yahweh, he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea on them, and covered them; and your eyes saw what I did in Egypt. You lived in the wilderness many days.

Then Solomon said, “Yahweh has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.

For Yahweh’s eyes run back and forth throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. You have done foolishly in this; for from now on you will have wars.”

Let darkness and the shadow of death claim it for their own. Let a cloud dwell on it. Let all that makes black the day terrify it.

For he knows false men. He sees iniquity also, even though he doesn’t consider it.

Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous; their minds and hearts are searched by the righteous God.

If I say, “Surely the darkness will overwhelm me. The light around me will be night,”

The way of Yahweh is a stronghold to the upright, but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity.

For my eyes are on all their ways. They are not hidden from my face. Their iniquity isn’t concealed from my eyes.

because they have done foolish things in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbors’ wives, and have spoken words in my name falsely, which I didn’t command them. I am he who knows, and am witness,” says Yahweh.

There is a man in your kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of your father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him. The king Nebuchadnezzar your father, yes, the king, your father, made him master of the magicians, enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers;

and you will be blessed, because they don’t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.”

This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

Moses went up to God, and Yahweh called to him out of the mountain, saying, “This is what you shall tell the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:

Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I come to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever.” Moses told the words of the people to Yahweh.

He bowed the heavens also, and came down. Thick darkness was under his feet.

Then Solomon said, “Yahweh has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.

But you be strong, and don’t let your hands be slack; for your work will be rewarded.”

They are high as heaven. What can you do? They are deeper than Sheol. What can you know?

Destruction and Death say, ‘We have heard a rumor of it with our ears.’

Have the gates of death been revealed to you? Or have you seen the gates of the shadow of death?

He bowed the heavens also, and came down. Thick darkness was under his feet.

Moreover your servant is warned by them. In keeping them there is great reward.

For with you is the spring of life. In your light we will see light.

Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

behold, you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that is hidden from you;

The king answered to Daniel, and said, “Of a truth your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you have been able to reveal this secret.”

I have heard of you, that the spirit of the gods is in you, and that light, understanding, and excellent wisdom are found in you.

They don’t consider in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness. Now their own deeds have engulfed them. They are before my face.

seek him who made the Pleiades and Orion, and turns the shadow of death into the morning, and makes the day dark with night; who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth, Yahweh is his name,

Though they dig into Sheol, there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down.

Though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out there; and though they be hidden from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them.

Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.

He said to them, “Why are you troubled? Why do doubts arise in your hearts?

Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”

When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been sick for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to be made well?”

Therefore Jesus answered them, “Don’t murmur among yourselves.

But there are some of you who don’t believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who didn’t believe, and who it was who would betray him.

So when they had eaten their breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love me more than these?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I have affection for you.” He said to him, “Feed my lambs.”

He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you have affection for me?” Peter was grieved because he asked him the third time, “Do you have affection for me?” He said to him, “Lord, you know everything. You know that I have affection for you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep.

because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; of which he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.”

Having regard for honorable things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

He alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen.

It came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. There was the cloud and the darkness, yet gave it light by night. One didn’t come near the other all night.

The people stayed at a distance, and Moses came near to the thick darkness where God was.

He uncovers deep things out of darkness, and brings out to light the shadow of death.

“Only don’t do two things to me, then I will not hide myself from your face:

Sheol is naked before God, and Abaddon has no covering.

so that your merciful deeds may be in secret, then your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account.
