Psalms 139:13-14

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 139:13-14. Thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise thee for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:

Hence Galen, the oldest and the best-known of the ancient surgeons, was wont to say that an undevout anatomist must be mad, as another said that an undevout astronomer was mad, for there is such a marvellous display of skill and wisdom, delicacy and force, in the making of a man, that we may each one say, "I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made."
