Psalms 139:6-8 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

6 Knowledge too wonderful for me, It hath been set on high, I am not able for it.

7 Whither do I go from Thy Spirit? And whither from Thy face do I flee?

8 If I ascend the heavens -- there Thou `art', And spread out a couch in Sheol, lo, Thee!

PSALM 139

Ps 139:1-24. After presenting the sublime doctrines of God's omnipresence and omniscience, the Psalmist appeals to Him, avowing his innocence, his abhorrence of the wicked, and his ready submission to the closest scrutiny. Admonition to the wicked and comfort to the pious are alike implied inferences from these doctrines.
