Bible in Basic English
"When your fear comes on you like a storm, and your trouble like a rushing wind; when pain and sorrow come on you."
— Proverbs 1:27, Bible in Basic English
“When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.”
“When your fear cometh as a storm, And your calamity cometh on as a whirlwind; When distress and anguish come upon you. ”
“when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when your disaster comes on like a whirlwind; when distress and anguish come on you.”
“when what you dread comes like a whirlwind, and disaster strikes you like a devastating storm, when distressing trouble comes on you.”
Because your ears were shut to my voice; no one gave attention to my out-stretched hand;
You were not controlled by my guiding, and would have nothing to do with my sharp words:
So in the day of your trouble I will be laughing; I will make sport of your fear;
When your fear comes on you like a storm, and your trouble like a rushing wind; when pain and sorrow come on you.
Then I will give no answer to their cries; searching for me early, they will not see me:
For they were haters of knowledge, and did not give their hearts to the fear of the Lord:
They had no desire for my teaching, and my words of protest were as nothing to them.
