American Standard Version
"For calamity from God is a terror to me, And by reason of his majesty I can do nothing. "
— Job 31:23, American Standard Version
“For destruction from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure.”
“For calamity from God is a terror to me. Because his majesty, I can do nothing.”
“For the calamity from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his majesty I was powerless.”
“For I have always feared God as waves swelling over me, and his weight I was unable to bear.”
“For the fear of God kept me back, and because of his power I might not do such things.”
“For destruction from God was a terror to me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure.”
If his loins have not blessed me, And if he hath not been warmed with the fleece of my sheep;
If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, Because I saw my help in the gate:
Then let my shoulder fall from the shoulder-blade, And mine arm be broken from the bone.
For calamity from God is a terror to me, And by reason of his majesty I can do nothing.
If I have made gold my hope, And have said to the fine gold, Thou artmy confidence;
If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, And because my hand had gotten much;
If I have beheld the sun when it shined, Or the moon walking in brightness,
