11 Or if I say, The darkness sure Shall hide me from thy [piercing] sight; The darkness, even the most obscure, About me shall be [as the] light.
12 Yea, darkness hideth not from thee, But night doth shine as [bright as] day; To thee the darkness and the light [Indeed] are both alike alway.
13 For thou possessed hast my reins, And thou didst form and cover me, ⟨p. 240⟩When I within my mother's womb Enclosed was [and shaped] by thee.
13 For thou possessed hast my reins, And thou didst form and cover me, ⟨p. 240⟩When I within my mother's womb Enclosed was [and shap'd] by thee.
