Psalms 139:8

Context

139:8 If I were to ascend 1  to heaven, you would be there.

If I were to sprawl out in Sheol, there you would be. 2 

1 tn The Hebrew verb סָלַק (salaq, “to ascend”) occurs only here in the OT, but the word is well-attested in Aramaic literature from different time periods and displays a wide semantic range (see DNWSI 2:788-90).

2 tn Heb “look, you.”
