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

Verse 3 is found in chapter 139 of Psalms. Psalm 139 explores God’s exhaustive knowledge of the individual. God knows sitting, rising, thoughts, ways, and words before they are spoken. Divine omnipresence makes escape from his Spirit impossible, whether in heaven, the depths, or the farthest sea. Reflection on formation in the womb leads to wonder at God’s creative work. Finally, the psalmist asks this divine knowledge to examine and guide his way.

Ich gehe oder liege, so bist du um mich und siehst alle meine Wege.
Mi senda y mi acostarme has rodeado, Y estás impuesto en todos mis caminos.
Examinas mi caminar y mi descanso, y conoces bien todos mis caminos.
Tu sais quand je marche et quand je me couche, Et tu pénètres toutes mes voies.
Tu aggiri i miei sentieri e il mio ricetto; E sei usato a tutte le mie vie.
Cercas o meu andar, e o meu deitar; e conheces todos os meus caminhos.
我行路,我躺臥,你都細察; 你也深知我一切所行的。
