Jeremiah 6:24-26
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
24 We have heard the report of it; our hands become feeble and helpless. Anguish has taken hold of us, pangs like that of a woman in childbirth.
25 Go not out into the field nor walk on the road, for the enemy is armed with the sword; terror is on every side.
26 O daughter of my people [says Jeremiah], gird yourself with sackcloth and wallow in ashes; make mourning as for an only son, a most bitter lamentation, for the destroyer will suddenly come upon us [on prophet and people].

New International Version
24 We have heard reports about them,
and our hands hang limp.(A)
Anguish(B) has gripped us,
pain like that of a woman in labor.(C)
25 Do not go out to the fields
or walk on the roads,
for the enemy has a sword,
and there is terror on every side.(D)
26 Put on sackcloth,(E) my people,
and roll in ashes;(F)
mourn with bitter wailing(G)
as for an only son,(H)
for suddenly the destroyer(I)
will come upon us.
