Psalms 69:23

Context

69:23 May their eyes be blinded! 1 

Make them shake violently! 2 

Isaiah 13:7-8

Context

13:7 For this reason all hands hang limp, 3 

every human heart loses its courage. 4 

13:8 They panic –

cramps and pain seize hold of them

like those of a woman who is straining to give birth.

They look at one another in astonishment;

their faces are flushed red. 5 

Isaiah 21:3-4

Context

21:3 For this reason my stomach churns; 6 

cramps overwhelm me

like the contractions of a woman in labor.

I am disturbed 7  by what I hear,

horrified by what I see.

21:4 My heart palpitates, 8 

I shake in fear; 9 

the twilight I desired

has brought me terror.
