13 It was You who created my conscience;[a]
You fashioned me in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise You,
for I am awesomely, wondrously made;
Your work is wonderful;
I know it very well.
15 My frame was not concealed from You
when I was shaped in a hidden place,
knit together in the recesses of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed limbs;
they were all recorded in Your book;
in due time they were formed,
to the very last one of them.
[a] Lit. “kidneys.”
13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.
14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
- made v 14&15 — עָשָׂה asah
- formed v 15 — יָצַר (yatzar) - the potter's word.
