Psalm 139:7-12

New American Standard Bible 1995

^7 (A)Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
^8 (B)If I ascend to heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in ^[a]Sheol, behold, ^(C)You are there.
⁹ If I take the wings of the dawn,
If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,
¹⁰ Even there Your hand will ^(D)lead me,
And Your right hand will lay hold of me.
¹¹ If I say, “Surely the ^(E)darkness will ^[b]overwhelm me,
And the light around me will be night,”
¹² Even the ^(F)darkness is not dark ^[c]to You,
And the night is as bright as the day.
^(G)Darkness and light are alike to You.
