Psalm 139:6 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 139.

2 You know when I sit and when I rise; You understand my thoughts from afar.

3 You search out my path and my lying down; You are aware of all my ways.

4 Even before a word is on my tongue, You know all about it, O LORD.

5 You hem me in behind and before; You have laid Your hand upon me.

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.

7 Where can I go to escape Your Spirit? Where can I flee from Your presence?

8 If I ascend to the heavens, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, You are there.

9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle by the farthest sea,

10 even there Your hand will guide me; Your right hand will hold me fast.
