Psalms 139:17 in Context — Psalms 139

15 No fué encubierto de ti mi cuerpo, bien que en oculto fuí formado, [y] compaginado en lo más bajo de la tierra.

16 Mi embrión vieron tus ojos, y en tu libro estaban escritas todas aquellas cosas que fueron luego formadas, sin [faltar] una de ellas.

17 Así que ¡cuán preciosos me son, oh Dios, tus pensamientos! ¡cuán multiplicadas son sus cuentas!

18 Si los cuento, multiplícanse más que la arena: despierto, y aun estoy contigo.

19 De cierto, oh Dios, matarás al impío; apartaos pues de mí, hombres sanguinarios.
