8. If I go up to the skies, you are there.If I lie down where the dead are, you are there.
9. If I rise with the sun in the east,and settle in the west beyond the sea,
10. even there you would guide me.With your right hand you would hold me.
11. I could say, “The darkness will hide me.The light around me will turn into night.”
12. But even the darkness is not dark to you.The night is as light as the day.Darkness and light are the same to you.
13. You made my whole being.You formed me in my mother’s body.
14. I praise you because you made me in an amazing and wonderful way.What you have done is wonderful.I know this very well.
15. You saw my bones being formedas I took shape in my mother’s body.When I was put together there,
16. you saw my body as it was formed.All the days planned for mewere written in your bookbefore I was one day old.
