Jeremiah 30:5-7

Modern English Version

I have heard a sound of trembling,
    of fear, and not of peace.
⁶ Ask now, and see,
    can a male labor with child?
Why do I see every man
    with his hands on his loins, as a woman in labor,
    and all faces turned pale?
⁷ Alas! for that day is great,
    so that no one is like it;
it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble,
    but he shall be saved out of it.
