¹³ For it was you who formed my inward parts;
   you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
¹⁴ I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
   Wonderful are your works;
that I know very well.
¹⁵   My frame was not hidden from you,
when I was being made in secret,
   intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
¹⁶ Your eyes beheld my unformed substance.
In your book were written
   all the days that were formed for me,
   when none of them as yet existed.
¹⁷ How weighty to me are your thoughts, O God!
   How vast is the sum of them!
¹⁸ I try to count them—they are more than the sand;
   I come to the end^*—I am still with you.

³⁴ ‘Can you lift up your voice to the clouds,
   so that a flood of waters may cover you?
³⁵ Can you send forth lightnings, so that they may go
   and say to you, “Here we are”?
³⁶ Who has put wisdom in the inward parts,^*
   or given understanding to the mind?^*
37 Who has the wisdom to number the clouds?
   Or who can tilt the waterskins of the heavens,
³⁸ when the dust runs into a mass
   and the clods cling together?

³⁹ ‘Can you hunt the prey for the lion,
   or satisfy the appetite of the young lions,
⁴⁰ when they crouch in their dens,
   or lie in wait in their covert?
⁴¹ Who provides for the raven its prey,
   when its young ones cry to God,
   and wander about for lack of food?
