Job 23:13-17

Expanded Bible

¹³ “But he is ·the only God [unique].
    Who can ·come against him [^Lturn him back]?
    He does anything he wants.
¹⁴ He will do to me what he ·said he would do [has designated for me],
    and he ·has [or may have] many plans like this.
¹⁵ That is why I am ·frightened [terrified] of ·him [^Lhis presence];
    when I ·think of [reflect on] this, I am ·afraid [in dread] of him.
¹⁶ God has made ·me afraid [^Lmy heart timid];
    ·the Almighty [^LShaddai] terrifies me.
¹⁷ But I am not ·hidden [silenced] by the darkness,
    by the thick darkness that covers my face [^Cthough afraid, Job still seeks to set God straight].
