⁹ If I ride the wings of the morning,
    if I dwell by the farthest oceans,

⁶ The sun rises at one end of the heavens
    and follows its course to the other end.
    Nothing can hide from its heat.

¹⁶ Both day and night belong to you;
    you made the starlight^[a] and the sun.
¹⁷ You set the boundaries of the earth,
    and you made both summer and winter.

¹⁴ But all who are left shout and sing for joy.
    Those in the west praise the Lord’s majesty.
¹⁵ In eastern lands, give glory to the Lord.
    In the lands beyond the sea, praise the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
¹⁶ We hear songs of praise from the ends of the earth,
    songs that give glory to the Righteous One!

But my heart is heavy with grief.
    Weep for me, for I wither away.
Deceit still prevails,
    and treachery is everywhere.

¹⁰ Mounted on a mighty angelic being,^[a] he flew,
    soaring on the wings of the wind.
