4 When the kings joined forces,

when they advanced together,

5 they saw her and were astounded;

they fled in terror.

6 Trembling seized them there,

pain like that of a woman in labor.

7 You destroyed them like ships of Tarshish

shattered by an east wind.

4 For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.

5 They saw it, and so they marvelled;

They were troubled, and hasted away.

6 Fear took hold upon them there,

And pain, as of a woman in travail.

7 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.

4 The kings of the earth joined forces

and advanced against the city.

5 But when they saw it, they were stunned;

they were terrified and ran away.

6 They were gripped with terror

and writhed in pain like a woman in labor.

7 You destroyed them like the mighty ships of Tarshish

shattered by a powerful east wind.

4 For behold, the kings assembled,

They passed by together.

5 They saw it, and so they marveled;

They were troubled, they hastened away.

6 Fear took hold of them there,

And pain, as of a woman in birth pangs,

7 As when You break the ships of Tarshish

With an east wind.

4 Kings joined together

and came to attack the city.

5 But when they saw it, they were amazed.

They ran away in fear.

6 Fear took hold of them;

they hurt like a woman having a baby.

7 You destroyed the large trading ships

with an east wind.

4 For, lo, the kings assembled themselves,

They passed by together.

5 They saw it, then were they amazed;

They were dismayed, they hasted away.

6 Trembling took hold of them there,

Pain, as of a woman in travail.

7 With the east wind

Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish.

4 For behold, the kings assembled themselves, they passed by together; 5 They saw, —so they marvelled; they were troubled, they fled in consternation: 6 Trembling took hold upon them there; anguish, as of a woman in travail. 7 With an east wind thou hast broken the ships of Tarshish.

4 The kings have gathered. 

They marched together. 

5 ⸤When⸥ they saw ⸤Mount Zion⸥, 

they were astonished. 

They were terrified and ran away in fear. 

6 Trembling seized them 

like the trembling that a woman experiences during labor. 

7 With the east wind you smash the ships of Tarshish. 

4 Look! The kings assembled;

they advanced together.

5 They looked and froze with fear;

they fled in terror.

6 Trembling seized them there,

agony like that of a woman in labor,

7 as You wrecked the ships of Tarshish

with the east wind.

4 Then the kings assembled,

they came on together.

5 As soon as they saw it, they were astounded;

they were in panic, they took to flight;

6 trembling took hold of them there,

pains as of a woman in labor,

7 as when an east wind shatters

the ships of Tarshish.

4 For see, the kings assembled;

they advanced together.

5 They themselves saw it, so they were astonished.

They were terrified; they ran off.

6 Trembling seized them there—

pain as of a woman in labor.

7 With an east wind

you shatter the ships of Tarshish.

4 Many kings joined forces.

They entered Israel together.

5 But when they saw Mount Zion, they were amazed.

They ran away in terror.

6 Trembling took hold of them.

They felt pain like a woman giving birth to a baby.

7 Lord, you destroyed them like ships of Tarshish

that were torn apart by an east wind.

4 For, lo, the kings assembled themselves,

They passed by together.

5 They saw it, then they were amazed;

They were terrified, they fled in alarm.

6 Panic seized them there,

Anguish, as of a woman in childbirth.

7 With the east wind

You break the ships of Tarshish.
