Tehillim 139:6-14 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

6. Such da'as is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

7. To where can I go from Thy Ruach [Hakodesh]? Or to where shall I flee from Thy presence?

8. If I ascend up into Shomayim, Thou art there; if I make my bed in Sheol, hinei, Thou art there.

9. If I take the wings of the shachar (dawn), and dwell in the uttermost acharit yam (the extreme end of the sea);

10. Even there shall Thy yad lead me, and Thy yamin shall hold me.

11. If I say, Surely the choshech shall cover me, even the lailah shall be ohr about me.

12. Even the choshech is not dark to Thee; but the lailah shineth as the yom; the choshech and the ohr are both alike to Thee.

13. For Thou hast created my inmost being; Thou didst interweave me in the beten immi.

14. I will praise Thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvellous are Thy ma'asim; and that my nefesh knoweth very well.
