Isaiah 51:13

And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?

KJV

Et oblitus es Domini, factoris tui, qui tetendit cælos et fundavit terram ; et formidasti jugiter tota die a facie furoris ejus qui te tribulabat, et paraverat ad perdendum. Ubi nunc est furor tribulantis ?

Vulgate

καὶ ἐπελάθου θεὸν τὸν ποιήσαντά σε, τὸν ποιήσαντα τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ θεμελιώσαντα τὴν γῆν· καὶ ἐφόβου ἀεὶ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τὸ ⸂⸆⸃ πρόσωπον τοῦ θυμοῦ τοῦ θλίβοντός σε, ὃν τρόπον γὰρ ἐβουλεύσατο τοῦ ἆραί σε· καὶ νῦν ποῦ ὁ θυμὸς τοῦ θλίβοντός σε;

LXX

and hast forgotten Jehovah thy Maker, that stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and fearest continually all the day because of the fury of the oppressor, when he maketh ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?
