Shaken with fear or terror · dominant
The nominative singular masculine form occurs of persons in fear-filled scenes. In Acts 7:32 the APB renders Moses as trembling and not daring to look; in Hebrews 12:21 it renders Moses saying, "I am terrified and trembling"; and in Acts 16:29 it renders a man who rushed in and fell before Paul and Silas as trembling.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB uses "trembling" in Acts 7:32 and Acts 16:29, and pairs it with "terrified" in Hebrews 12:21. These phrases confirm the fearful setting rather than isolate a fixed English equivalent.
