9 Now why do you cry aloud?
(A)Is there no king in you?
(B)Has your counselor perished,
that (C)pain seized you like a woman in labor?
10 (D)Writhe and groan,[a] O daughter of Zion,
like a woman in labor,
for (E)now you shall go out from the city
and dwell in the open country;
you (F)shall go to Babylon.
There you shall be rescued;
(G)there the Lord will redeem you
from the hand of your enemies.
