God’s Omnipresence and Omniscience.
139 O Lord, You have searched me and known me.
2 You know a]when I sit down and b]when I rise up;
You understand my thought from afar.
3 You c]scrutinize my d]path and my lying down,
And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
4 e]Even before there is a word on my tongue,
Behold, O Lord, You know it all.
5 You have enclosed me behind and before,
And laid Your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
It is too high, I cannot attain to it.
7 Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
8 If I ascend to heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in f]Sheol, behold, You are there.
9 If I take the wings of the dawn,
If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,
10 Even there Your hand will lead me,
And Your right hand will lay hold of me.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will g]overwhelm me,
And the light around me will be night,”
12 Even the darkness is not dark h]to You,
And the night is as bright as the day.
Darkness and light are alike to You.
