Job 4:12 in Context — Job 4

10 O rugido do leão, a voz do leão feroz, e os dentes dos leões jovens são quebrantados.

11 O leão velho perece por falta de presa, e os filhotes da leoa se dispersam.

12 Uma palavra me foi dita em segredo, e meu ouvidos escutaram um sussurro dela.

13 Em imaginações de visões noturnas, quando o sono profundo cai sobre os homens,

14 Espanto e tremor vieram sobre mim, que espantou todos os meus ossos.
