Old Testament

New Testament

Psalm 139:5-12 New International Version (NIV)

5. You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me.

6. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.

7. Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?

8. If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.

9. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea,

10. even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.

11. If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,”

12. even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
