8  ^kIf I ascend to heaven, you are there!

If I ^lmake my bed in Sheol, ^myou are there!

13  You said in your heart,

‘I will ascend to heaven;

above the stars of God

I will set my throne on high;

I will sit on the mount of assembly

in the far reaches of the north;¹

14  I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;

I will make myself like the Most High.’

15  But you are brought down to Sheol,

to the far reaches of the pit.
