3. You have understood my thoughts from afar. My path and my fate, you have investigated.
4. And you have foreseen all my ways. For there is no word in my tongue.
5. Behold, O Lord, you have known all things: the newest and the very old. You have formed me, and you have placed your hand over me.
6. Your knowledge has become a wonder to me. It has been reinforced, and I am not able to prevail against it.
7. Where will I go from your Spirit? And where will I flee from your face?
8. If I ascend into heaven, you are there. If I descend into Hell, you are near.
9. If I assume my feathers in early morning, and dwell in the utmost parts of the sea,
10. even there, your hand will lead me forth, and your right hand will hold me.
11. And I said: Perhaps darkness will overwhelm me, and the night will be my illumination, to my delight.
