15     The sword falls on anyone outside the city;
        disease and famine ravage those who remain inside.
    Those in the open will die by the sword;
        those inside the city walls will be consumed by famine and disease.
16     The survivors will run for the mountains
        and moan like doves because of their sins.
17     Every hand will go weak and limp;
        every knee will turn to water.

    they will all moan,
    each for their own sins.(D)
17 Every hand will go limp;(E)
    every leg will be wet with urine.(F)
