Psalm 139:5-12
5
You t hem me in, behind and before,
and u lay your hand upon me.
6
v Such knowledge is w too wonderful for me;
it is high; I cannot attain it.
7
x Where shall I go from your Spirit?
Or where y shall I flee from your presence?
8
z If I ascend to heaven, you are there!
a If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!
9
If I take the wings of the morning
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10
even there your hand shall b lead me,
and your right hand shall hold me.
11
If I say, c "Surely the darkness shall cover me,
and the light about me be night,"
12
d even the darkness is not dark to you;
the night is bright as the day,
for darkness is as light with you.
