Job 9:34

English Standard Version 2016

Let him take his rod away from me, and let not dread of him terrify me.

See the chapter Copy

Remove your stroke from me; I am spent by the hostility of your hand.

Behold, no fear of me need terrify you; my pressure will not be heavy upon you.

Will not his majesty terrify you, and the dread of him fall upon you?

Who considers the power of your anger, and your wrath according to the fear of you?

“At this also my heart trembles and leaps out of its place.

For I was in terror of calamity from God, and I could not have faced his majesty.

Therefore I am terrified at his presence; when I consider, I am in dread of him.

then I will punish their transgression with the rod and their iniquity with stripes,

When you discipline a man with rebukes for sin, you consume like a moth what is dear to him; surely all mankind is a mere breath! Selah
