New International Version (NIV)

6Yet you desired faithfulness even in the womb;

you taught me wisdom in that secret place.

6Behold, You desire truth in the innermost being,

And in secret You will make wisdom known to me.

6Behold, You desire truth in the innermost being,

And in the hidden part [of my heart] You will make me know wisdom.

6Surely You desire truth in the inmost being;

You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.

6Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts;

And in the hidden part thou wilt make me to know wisdom.

6Beholde, thou louest trueth in the inwarde affections: therefore hast thou taught mee wisedome in the secret of mine heart.

6Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts.

You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.

6I know that you wanted faithfulness even when I was in my mother’s body.

You taught me wisdom in that secret place.

6But you want me to be completely good and honest.

You want to teach me to be wise

in the way that I live.

6Behold, You have desired truth in the inward parts, || And in the hidden part You cause me to know Wisdom.
