Let him take his rod away from me so his terror will no longer frighten me.
Let him take his rod away from me, And let not his fear terrify me:
That He might take His rod away from [threatening] me, and that the fear of Him might not terrify me.
Let him take his rod away from me, And let not his terror make me afraid:
remove his rod from me, so his fury wouldn’t frighten me.
Let him take his staff away from me, and let not the fear of him terrify me.
Let him take his rod away from me and let not his fear terrify me.
Would God’s majesty not terrify you? Would his dread not fall on you?
Therefore I am terrified in his presence; when I consider this, I am afraid of him.
For disaster from God terrifies me, and because of his majesty I could not do these things.
Fear of me should not terrify you; no pressure from me should weigh you down.
My heart pounds at this and leaps from my chest.
