13 The pangs of childbirth come for him,

but he is an unwise son,

for at the right time he does not present himself

at the opening of the womb.

13 The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him:

He is an unwise son;

For he should not stay long in the place of the breaking forth of children.

13 Pain has come to the people

like the pain of childbirth,

but they are like a child

who resists being born.

The moment of birth has arrived,

but they stay in the womb!

13 The sorrows of a woman in childbirth shall come upon him.

He is an unwise son,

For he should not stay long where children are born.

13 The pain of birth will come for him,

but he is like a foolish baby

who won’t come out of its mother’s womb.

13 The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him: he is an unwise son; for it is time he should not tarry in the place of the breaking forth of children.

13 The pangs of a woman in travail shall come upon him: he is a son not wise; for at the time of the breaking forth of children, he was not there.

13 They have the opportunity to live again, 

but they are not smart enough to take it. 

They are like a baby who is about to be born 

but won’t come out of its mother’s womb. 

13 Labor pains come on him.

He is not a wise son;

when the time comes,

he will not be born.

13 The pangs of childbirth come for him,

but he is an unwise son;

for at the proper time he does not present himself

at the mouth of the womb.

13 The labor pains of childbirth come for him;

he is an unwise son

because at the proper time, he does not present himself

at the mouth of the womb.

13 You will suffer pain like a woman having a baby.

You are like a foolish child.

It is time for you to be born.

But you refuse to come out of your mother’s body.

13 The pains of childbirth come upon him;

He is not a wise son,

For it is not the time that he should delay at the opening of the womb.
