NASB
"We have heard the report of it; Our hands are limp. Anguish has seized us, Pain as of a woman in childbirth."
— Jeremiah 6:24, NASB
“We have heard the fame thereof: our hands wax feeble: anguish hath taken hold of us, and pain, as of a woman in travail.”
“We have heard the report thereof; our hands wax feeble: anguish hath taken hold of us, and pangs as of a woman in travail. ”
“We have heard its report; our hands wax feeble: anguish has taken hold of us, [and] pangs as of a woman in travail.”
“The people cry out,“We have heard reports about them! We have become helpless with fear! Anguish grips us, agony like that of a woman giving birth to a baby!”
“We have heard the fame thereof, our hands grow feeble: anguish hath taken hold of us, as a woman in labour.”
“The news of it has come to our ears; our hands have become feeble: trouble has come on us and pain, like the pain of a woman in childbirth.”
“We have heard the fame thereof: our hands wax feeble: anguish hath taken hold of us, and pain, as of a woman in travail.”
Therefore, thus says the LORD, "Behold, I am laying stumbling blocks before this people. And they will stumble against them, Fathers and sons together; Neighbor and friend will perish."
Thus says the LORD, "Behold, a people is coming from the north land, And a great nation will be aroused from the remote parts of the earth.
"They seize bow and spear; They are cruel and have no mercy; Their voice roars like the sea, And they ride on horses, Arrayed as a man for the battle Against you, O daughter of Zion!"
We have heard the report of it; Our hands are limp. Anguish has seized us, Pain as of a woman in childbirth.
Do not go out into the field And do not walk on the road, For the enemy has a sword, Terror is on every side.
O daughter of my people, put on sackcloth And roll in ashes; Mourn as for an only son, A lamentation most bitter. For suddenly the destroyer Will come upon us.
"I have made you an assayer and a tester among My people, That you may know and assay their way."
