6. Ask now, and see whether a man travails with child.Why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail,and all faces are turned pale?
7. Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it.It is even the time of Jacob’s trouble;but he will be saved out of it.
8. It will come to pass in that day, says the Lord of Hosts, that I will break his yoke from off your neck,and will burst your bonds.Strangers will no more make them their bondservants;
9. but they will serve the Lord their God,and David their king,whom I will raise up to them.
