Wail ye; for the Yom Hashem is karov (near); it shall come like shod (sudden destruction) from Shaddai.

Therefore shall kol yadayim (all hands) fall weak, and kol levav enosh shall melt;

And they shall be afraid; pangs and chavalim (pains) shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain like a woman that travaileth in childbirth; one shall be aghast at his re’a; their faces shall be like flaming visages.

    pain and anguish will grip(H) them;
    they will writhe like a woman in labor.(I)
They will look aghast at each other,
    their faces aflame.(J)
