feareth

Biblical term: trembles

Feareth is an archaic form of "fears," using the third-person singular ending *-eth* common in Early Modern English.

It survives almost exclusively in biblical and liturgical contexts: The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
