 1 Lord, You have  searched me and known me.  2 You  know  when I sit down and  when I get up; You  understand my thought from far away.  3 You   scrutinize my  path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways.  4  Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, Lord, You  know it all.  5 You have  encircled me behind and in front, And  placed Your hand upon me.  6 Such knowledge is  too wonderful for me; It is too high, I cannot comprehend it.  7  Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?  8  If I ascend to heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in  Sheol, behold,  You are there.  9 If I take up the wings of the dawn, If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,  10 Even there Your hand will  lead me, And Your right hand will take hold of me.  11 If I say, “Surely the  darkness will  overwhelm me, And the light around me will be night,”  12 Even  darkness is not dark  to You, And the night is as bright as the day.  Darkness and light are alike to You.  13 For You  created my innermost parts; You  wove me in my mother’s womb.  14 I will give thanks to You, because  I am awesomely and wonderfully made;  Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well.  15 My   frame was not hidden from You When I was made in secret, And skillfully formed in the  depths of the earth;  16 Your  eyes have seen my formless substance; And in  Your book were written All the  days that were ordained for me, When as yet there was not one of them.  17 How precious also are Your  thoughts for me, God! How vast is the sum of them!  18 Were I to count them, they would  outnumber the sand.

From Wikipedia: The New American Standard Bible (NASB) is an English translation of the Bible. Published by the Lockman Foundation, the first NASB text—a translation of the Gospel of John—was released in 1960. The NASB New Testament was released in 1963. The complete NASB Bible was released in 1971. The NASB is a revision of the American Standard Version.

The Lockman Foundation claims that the NASB "has been widely embraced as a literal and accurate English translation because it consistently uses the formal equivalence translation philosophy."
