New Living Translation

Psalms 139:6-13 New Living Translation (NLT)

6. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,too great for me to understand!

7. I can never escape from your Spirit!I can never get away from your presence!

8. If I go up to heaven, you are there;if I go down to the grave, you are there.

9. If I ride the wings of the morning,if I dwell by the farthest oceans,

10. even there your hand will guide me,and your strength will support me.

11. I could ask the darkness to hide meand the light around me to become night—

12. but even in darkness I cannot hide from you.To you the night shines as bright as day.Darkness and light are the same to you.

13. You made all the delicate, inner parts of my bodyand knit me together in my mother’s womb.
