“Indeed, you have now become such,
You see a terror and are afraid.

“Sounds of terror are in his ears;
While at peace the destroyer comes upon him.

“For calamity from God is a terror to me,
And because of His majesty I can do nothing.

“Who can open the doors of his face?
Around his teeth there is terror.

“For the arrows of the Almighty are within me,
Their poison my spirit drinks;
The terrors of God are arrayed against me.

“All around terrors frighten him,
And harry him at every step.

“He is torn from the security of his tent,
And they march him before the king of terrors.

“It is drawn forth and comes out of his back,
Even the glittering point from his gall.
Terrors come upon him,

“For the morning is the same to him as thick darkness,
For he is familiar with the terrors of thick darkness.

“Terrors overtake him like a flood;
A tempest steals him away in the night.

“Terrors are turned against me;
They pursue my honor as the wind,
And my prosperity has passed away like a cloud.
