NET Bible
"If I were to fly away on the wings of the dawn, and settle down on the other side of the sea,"
— Psalms 139:9, NET Bible
“If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;”
“If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; ”
“If I take the wings of the dawn, and settle in the uttermost parts of the sea;”
“Give me not up, O Lord, from my desire to the wicked: they have plotted against me; do not thou forsake me, lest they should triumph.”
“If I take the wings of the morning, and go to the farthest parts of the sea;”
“If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;”
Your knowledge is beyond my comprehension; it is so far beyond me, I am unable to fathom it.
Where can I go to escape your Spirit? Where can I flee to escape your presence?
If I were to ascend to heaven, you would be there. If I were to sprawl out in Sheol, there you would be.
If I were to fly away on the wings of the dawn, and settle down on the other side of the sea,
even there your hand would guide me, your right hand would grab hold of me.
If I were to say,“Certainly the darkness will cover me, and the light will turn to night all around me,”
even the darkness is not too dark for you to see, and the night is as bright as day; darkness and light are the same to you.
