Job 31:23

23 For I was ^ain terror of calamity from God,
and I could not have faced his ^bmajesty.

Psalms 77:2-9

2 ^cIn the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;
in ^dthe night my ^ehand is stretched out without wearying;
my soul ^frefuses to be comforted.
3 When I remember God, I ^gmoan;
when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah
4 You hold my eyelids open;
I am so ^htroubled that I cannot speak.
5 I consider ⁱthe days of old,
the years long ago.
6 I said, ^{▼▼Hebrew lacks I said} “Let me remember my ^ksong in the night;
let me ^lmeditate in my heart.”
Then my spirit made a diligent search:
7 “Will the Lord ^mspurn forever,
and never again ⁿbe favorable?
8 Has his steadfast love forever ceased?
Are his ^opromises at an end for all time?
9 ^pHas God forgotten to be gracious?
^qHas he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah

Psalms 88:15-16

15 Afflicted and close to death from my youth up,
I suffer your terrors; I am helpless. ^{▼▼The meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain}
16 Your wrath has swept over me;
your ^sdreadful assaults destroy me.
