Sirach 40:7

7 They wake up at the most desperate moment and are astonished that they were afraid for nothing.

Sirach 40:7 In-Context

5 there exists anger, envy, confusion, unrest, fear of death, fury, and conflict. Even when they rest in bed, nighttime dreams disturb their mind.
6 They get little or no rest; they even toil in their dreams, just as they do in the day, being troubled by images in their mind, as one who escapes from war.
7 They wake up at the most desperate moment and are astonished that they were afraid for nothing.
8 To all flesh, both human and animal, but to sinners seven times more so,
9 come death, blood, strife, sword, catastrophes, famine, ruin, and disease.
