⁷ Where can I go from your Spirit?
    Where can I flee^(A) from your presence?
⁸ If I go up to the heavens,^(B) you are there;
    if I make my bed^(C) 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,^(D)
    your right hand^(E) 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^(F) to you;
    the night will shine like the day,
    for darkness is as light to you.

¹³ For you created my inmost being;^(G)
    you knit me together^(H) in my mother’s womb.^(I)
14 I praise you^(J) because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,^(K)
    I know that full well.
¹⁵ My frame was not hidden from you
    when I was made^(L) in the secret place,
    when I was woven together^(M) in the depths of the earth.^(N)
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;
    all the days ordained^(O) for me were written in your book
    before one of them came to be.

“Heaven is my throne,^(A)
    and the earth is my footstool.^(B)
Where is the house^(C) you will build for me?
    Where will my resting place be?

²⁴ Who can hide^(A) in secret places
    so that I cannot see them?”
declares the Lord.
    “Do not I fill heaven and earth?”^(B)
declares the Lord.
