Job 24:17
For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.
KJV
Si subito apparuerit aurora, arbitrantur umbram mortis : et sic in tenebris quasi in luce ambulant.
Vulgate
ὅτι ὁμοθυμαδὸν αὐτοῖς τὸ πρωὶ σκιὰ θανάτου, ὅτι ἐπιγνώσεται τάραχος σκιᾶς θανάτου.
LXX
For the morning is to all of them as thick darkness; For they know the terrors of the thick darkness.
