Context Readings

Israel And Judah Will Be Delivered From Their Distress

4 Now these are the words the Lord spoke concerning Israel and Judah: 5 “Thus says the Lord,

‘We have heard a terrified voice
Of panic and dread, and there is no peace.

Whether a man can give birth [to a child].
Why then do I see every man
With his hands on his loins, as a woman in labor?
Why have all faces turned pale?
