And why do their faces turn so deathly pale? 7 Alas, what a terrible time of trouble it is! There has never been any like it. It is a time of trouble for the descendants of Jacob, but some of them will be rescued out of it. 8 When the time for them to be rescued comes," says the Lord who rules over all, "I will rescue you from foreign subjugation.
