Job 4:12-16

New International Reader's Version

¹² “A message came to me in secret.
    It was as quiet as a whisper.
¹³ I had a scary dream one night.
    I was sound asleep.
¹⁴ Fear and trembling seized me.
    That made every bone in my body shake.
¹⁵ A spirit glided past my face.
    The hair on my body stood on end.
¹⁶ Then the spirit stopped.
    But I couldn’t tell what it was.
Something stood there in front of me.
    I heard a soft voice.
