11 Doth not His excellency terrify you? And His dread fall upon you?
For a dread unto me `is' calamity `from' God, And because of His excellency I am not able.
Trembled from Thy fear hath my flesh, And from Thy judgments I have been afraid!
Thy hand put far off from me, And Thy terror let not terrify me.
Jehovah of Hosts -- Him ye do sanctify, And He `is' your Fear, and He your Dread,
Me do ye not fear, an affirmation of Jehovah? From My presence are ye not pained? Who hath made sand the border of the sea, A limit age-during, and it passeth not over it, They shake themselves, and they are not able, Yea, sounded have its billows, and they pass not over.
And Jehovah `is' a God of truth, He `is' a living God, and a king age-during, From His wrath shake doth the earth, And nations endure not His indignation.
`And be not afraid of those killing the body, and are not able to kill the soul, but fear rather Him who is able both soul and body to destroy in gehenna.
and they sing the song of Moses, servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, `Great and wonderful `are' Thy works, O Lord God, the Almighty, righteous and true `are' Thy ways, O King of saints, who may not fear Thee, O Lord, and glorify Thy name? because Thou alone `art' kind, because all the nations shall come and bow before Thee, because Thy righteous acts were manifested.'
