³ Therefore my body is^[a] racked with pain;
    pangs have seized me,
        like the pangs of a woman in labor;
I am so upset that I cannot hear;
    I am so frightened that I cannot see
    while I’m reeling around.^[b]
4 And as for my heart,^[c] horror has terrified me;
    the twilight I longed for
        has started to make me tremble.
⁵ They set the tables;
    they spread the carpets;^[d]
        they eat, they drink!
