(D)Their voice shall roar like the sea;
They shall ride on horses,
Set in array, like a man for the battle,
Against you, O daughter of Babylon.

And his hands grow feeble;
Anguish has taken hold of him,
Pangs as of a woman in (F)childbirth.

At the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem,
Against all its walls all around,
And against all the cities of Judah.
