Job 4:13

Fear

11 The old lion perishes for lack of prey, and the cubs of the lioness are scattered.

12 Now a word came to me secretly; my ears caught a whisper of it.

In disquieting visions in the night, when deep sleep falls on men,

14 fear and trembling came over me and made all my bones shudder.

15 Then a spirit glided past my face, and the hair on my body bristled.
