Fear grips all the people; every face grows pale with terror.

它们一来，众民伤恸，脸都变色。

在它们面前，万民伤恸，脸都变色。

在它们面前，万民伤恸，脸都变色。

它们一来，百姓就惊慌失措，面如死灰。

在他们面前，万民苦恼，人人脸红耳赤。

牠們一來，眾民傷慟，臉都變色。

在牠們面前，萬民傷慟，臉都變色。

在牠們面前，萬民傷慟，臉都變色。

牠們一來，百姓就驚慌失措，面如死灰。

在他們面前，萬民苦惱，人人臉紅耳赤。

在牠們面前、眾族人都翻騰難過，大家臉都失色發暗。

諸民見之、慘怛變色、

人見其將至、悚惶變色、

因此因此或作在其前民俱悚惶、眾面變色、

At the sight of them, nations are in anguish; every face turns pale.

When people see them, they tremble with fear. All their faces turn pale.

Before them peoples are in anguish; all faces grow pale.

Nations writhe in horror before them; all faces turn pale.

Before them the people are in anguish; All faces turn pale.

Before them the people writhe in pain; All faces are drained of color.

At their presence the peoples are in anguish; all faces are waxed pale.

Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness.

People writhe in fear when they see them. All of their faces turn pale with fright.

At their presence the peoples are in anguish. All faces have grown pale.

Soon the city is plundered, empty, and ruined. Hearts melt and knees shake. The people stand aghast, their faces pale and trembling.

and people are terrified. Pangs of anguish grip them, like those of a woman in labor. They look helplessly at one another, their faces aflame with fear.

Now let me ask you a question: Do men give birth to babies? Then why do they stand there, ashen faced, hands pressed against their sides like a woman in labor?

But now their faces are blacker than soot. No one recognizes them in the streets. Their skin sticks to their bones; it is as dry and hard as wood.

I hurt with the hurt of my people. I mourn and am overcome with grief.

I am shriveled like a wineskin in the smoke, but I have not forgotten to obey your decrees.
