“Terrors take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.”
King James Version (KJV)
27:20 Terrors - From the sense of approaching death or judgment. Waters - As violently and irresistibly, as a river breaking its banks, or deluge of waters bears down all before it. A tempest - God's wrath cometh upon him like a tempest, and withal unexpectedly like a thief in the night.
Terrours take hold on him as waters, a tempest stealeth him away in the night.
