LORD, I can see their children being hunted down and killed.

The people of Israel are like a plant whose roots have dried up and which bears no fruit. They will have no children, but even if they did, I would kill the children so dear to them."

How terrible it will be in those days for women who are pregnant and for mothers with little babies!

How terrible it will be in those days for women who are pregnant and for mothers with little babies!

How terrible it will be in those days for women who are pregnant and for mothers with little babies! Terrible distress will come upon this land, and God's punishment will fall on this people.

For the days are coming when people will say, 'How lucky are the women who never had children, who never bore babies, who never nursed them!'

Considering the present distress, I think it is better for a man to stay as he is.

Yes, all their cattle breed and give birth without trouble.
