139:7 Where can I go to escape your spirit?
Where can I flee to escape your presence?
139:8 If I were to ascend
If I were to sprawl out in Sheol, there you would be.
139:9 If I were to fly away
and settle down on the other side
139:10 even there your hand would guide me,
your right hand would grab hold of me.
139:11 If I were to say, “Certainly the darkness will cover me,
and the light will turn to night all around me,”
139:12 even the darkness is not too dark for you to see,
and the night is as bright as
darkness and light are the same to you.
