Withdraw Your hand from me, and do not let Your terror frighten me.
Surely no fear of me should terrify you; nor will my hand be heavy upon you.
Let Him remove His rod from me, so that His terror will no longer frighten me.
Remove Your scourge from me; I am perishing by the force of Your hand.
My flesh trembles in awe of You; I stand in fear of Your judgments.
Would His majesty not terrify you? Would the dread of Him not fall upon you?
Will you stay on the ancient path that wicked men have trod?
Are my days not few? Withdraw from me, that I may have a little comfort,
