Psalms 139:5. Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
"Like men lying in ambush, ‘thou hast beset me behind and before.’ All that I have ever done, and all that I shall ever do, thou knowest it all. I am like one under arrest, upon whom the officer lays his hand so that he may have no opportunity of escaping. I am in thy grip; thou hast taken such a firm hold upon me that I cannot get away from thee. In another sense, I am like a child enfolded in his mother’s arms, for thou hast ‘laid thine hand upon me.’"
