OLD TESTAMENT:

Fear-

1.   Isaiah 66:5-24 “I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears(megurah) upon them; Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.  Who hath beard such a things?  Who hath seen such things?  Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day?  Or shall a nation be born at once?  For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.  Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth?  Satin the Lord: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? Satin they God.  Rejoice yea with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all yea that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all yea that mourn for her:  For thus satin the Lord, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream:”
