“Do you really think anyone can hide himself where I cannot see him?” the Lord asks. 1  “Do you not know that I am everywhere?” 2  the Lord asks. 3 

NET Notes

1 tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”

2 tn The words “Don’t you know” are not in the text. They are a way of conveying the idea that the question which reads literally “Do I not fill heaven and earth?” expects a positive answer. They follow the pattern used at the beginning of the previous two questions and continue that thought. The words are supplied in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”
