'Arms' in the Bible

ל LamedThey cry out to their mothers:Where is the grain and wine?as they faint like the woundedin the streets of the city,as their lives fade awayin the arms of their mothers.

Look! O Lord, see to whom you have done this! Are the women to take as their food the fruit of their bodies, the children who are folded in their arms? are the priest and the prophet to be put to death in the holy place of the Lord?

As in the day of a holy meeting you have made fears come round me on every side, and no one got away or was kept safe in the day of the Lord's wrath: those who were folded in my arms, whom I took care of, have been sent to their destruction by my hater.
