New International Version NIV
7 Where can I go from your spirit? Or where can I flee from your presence?
7
Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?
8 If I ascend to heaven, you are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, you are there.
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 take the wings of the morning and settle at the farthest limits of the sea,
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 shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me fast.
10
even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.
11 If I say, "Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light around me become night,"
11
If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,”
12 even the darkness is not dark to you; the night is as bright as the day, for darkness is as light to you.
12
even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
