'Labor' in the Bible

“Now, why do you cry out loudly?Is there no king among you?Has your counselor perished?For agony has gripped you like a woman in childbirth.

“Writhe in pain and labor to give birth,O Daughter of Zion,Like a woman in childbirth;For now you shall go out of the city,Live in the field,And go to Babylon.There you will be rescued;There the Lord shall redeem youFrom the hand of your enemies.
