"Terrors overtake him like waters; A tempest stealeth him away in the night. "
— Job 27:20, American Standard Version
“Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.”
“Terrors overtake him like waters. A storm steals him away in the night.”
“Terrors overwhelm him like a flood; at night a whirlwind carries him off.”
“Poverty like water shall take hold on him, a tempest shall oppress him in the night:”
“Fears overtake him like rushing waters; in the night the storm-wind takes him away.”
“Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.”
He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, And the innocent shall divide the silver.
He buildeth his house as the moth, And as a booth which the keeper maketh.
He lieth down rich, but he shall not be gathered to his fathers; He openeth his eyes, and he is not.
Terrors overtake him like waters; A tempest stealeth him away in the night.
The east wind carrieth him away, and he departeth; And it sweepeth him out of his place.
ForGodshall hurl at him, and not spare: He would fain flee out of his hand.
Men shall clap their hands at him, And shall hiss him out of his place.
