NETBible

who¹ would take his² rod³ away from me so that his terror⁴ would not make me afraid.

NET Notes

¹tn The verse probably continues the description from the last verse, and so a relative pronoun may be supplied here as well.

²tn According to some, the reference of this suffix would be to God. The arbiter would remove the rod of God from Job. But others take it as a separate sentence with God removing his rod.

³sn The “rod” is a symbol of the power of God to decree whatever judgments and afflictions fall upon people.

⁴tn “His terror” is metonymical; it refers to the awesome majesty of God that overwhelms Job and causes him to be afraid.
