New English Translation

Psalms 139:8-12 New English Translation (NET)

8. If I were to ascend to heaven, you would be there.If I were to sprawl out in Sheol, there you would be.

9. If I were to fly away on the wings of the dawn,and settle down on the other side of the sea,

10. even there your hand would guide me,your right hand would grab hold of me.

11. If I were to say, “Certainly the darkness will cover me,and the light will turn to night all around me,”

12. even the darkness is not too dark for you to see,and the night is as bright as day;darkness and light are the same to you.
