Wisdom 17:14 In-Context

12 Fear betrays our ability to help ourselves by thinking clearly.

13 Expecting the worst, people prefer to remain ignorant of the cause of their torment.

14 The night itself was powerless, rising up from the darkest corners of a hell that didn't really exist. As they slept the same sleep,

15 monsters from their own imaginations rose up and hunted them down. They were paralyzed with fear as their spirits failed them. A sudden and unexpected fear drenched their whole being.

16 All who fell into that kind of place became like prisoners, locked up in cells without metal bars.
