Psalm 139:17-19
Good News Translation

17 (A)O God, how difficult I find your thoughts;[a]
    how many of them there are!
18 If I counted them, they would be more than the grains of sand.
    When I awake, I am still with you.

19 O God, how I wish you would kill the wicked!
    How I wish violent people would leave me alone!
