'Terrifying' in the Bible

The king said to her, “Do not be afraid; but [tell me] what do you see?” The woman said to Saul, “I see a divine [superhuman] being coming up from the earth.”

Then He opens the ears of menAnd seals their instruction,

The king’s wrath terrifies like the roaring of a lion,But his favor is as [refreshing and nourishing as] dew on the grass.

Then the king’s face grew pale, and his thoughts alarmed him; the joints and muscles of his hips and back weakened and his knees began knocking together.

When word reached the king of Nineveh [of Jonah’s message from God], he rose from his throne, took off his robe, covered himself with sackcloth and sat in the dust [in repentance].
