New Testament

Psalm 139:6-13 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

6. I'm amazed at how well you know me. It's more than I can understand.

7. How can I get away from your Spirit? Where can I go to escape from you?

8. If I go up to the heavens, you are there. If I lie down in the deepest parts of the earth, you are also there.

9. Suppose I were to rise with the sun in the east and then cross over to the west where it sinks into the ocean.

10. Your hand would always be there to guide me. Your right hand would still be holding me close.

11. Suppose I were to say, "I'm sure the darkness will hide me. The light around me will become as dark as night."

12. Even that darkness would not be dark to you. The night would shine like the day, because darkness is like light to you.

13. You created the deepest parts of my being. You put me together inside my mother's body.
