Psalm 139:7-12

World English Bible

⁷ Where could I go from your Spirit?
    Or where could I flee from your presence?
⁸ If I ascend up into heaven, you are there.
    If I make my bed in Sheol,^[a] behold, you are there!
⁹ If I take the wings of the dawn,
    and settle in the uttermost parts of the sea,
¹⁰ even there your hand will lead me,
    and your right hand will hold me.
¹¹ If I say, “Surely the darkness will overwhelm me.
    The light around me will be night,”
¹² even the darkness doesn’t hide from you,
    but the night shines as the day.
    The darkness is like light to you.
