'Perilous' in the Bible

And Saul said, “Who are You, Lord?” And He answered, “I am Jesus whom you are persecuting,

And when we all had fallen to the ground, I heard a voice in the Hebrew dialect (Jewish Aramaic) saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me? It is hard for you to kick [repeatedly] against the goads [offering pointless resistance].’

He rescued us from so great a threat of death, and will continue to rescue us. On Him we have set our hope. And He will again rescue us [from danger and draw us near],

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
