“You created every part of me;
you put me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because you are to be feared;
all you do is strange and wonderful.
I know it with all my heart.

carefully put together in my mother’s womb,
when I was growing there in secret,
you knew that I was there—
you saw me before I was born.”
Psalm 139
