Lest the LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.

Lest the Lord ... turn, away his wrath from him - upon thee. The Lord's turning away His wrath from him is virtually to arm him with strength to punish thee for exulting in his calamity (Job 31:29; Ezekiel 25:3; Ezekiel 26:2).
