King James Version
7 Jun 2026
“The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.”
Hebrew word study
חָקַר
he examines thoroughly/ him
châqar
To be fully known and not rejected — that is the miracle of Psalm 139. Chaqar is the searching of a jeweller examining a stone, a judge examining evidence. God has searched you completely. He knows the parts you hide from everyone else. And He has not turned away. That is the foundation of all confidence.
