SCRIPTURE

"He shall be rooted out of his tent where he trusteth; And he shall be brought to the king of terrors." — Job 18:14 (ASV)

His confidence shall be rooted out. —Rather, he shall be rooted out of his tent, which he considered his own.

The king of terrors. —Perhaps the most remarkable personification of unseen forces found in the Bible.
