Job 33:7

Bible in Basic English 1965

Fear of me will not overcome you, and my hand will not be hard on you.

See the chapter Copy

Take your hand far away from me; and let me not be overcome by fear of you.

But you said in my hearing, and your voice came to my ears:

For he is not a man as I am, that I might give him an answer, that we might come together before a judge.

Let him take away his rod from me and not send his fear on me:

For the weight of your hand was on me day and night; my body became dry like the earth in summer. Selah.

The heat of your wrath has gone over me; I am broken by your cruel punishments.
