Jeremiah 50:43

The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, And unnerved are his hands,—Anguish, hath seized him, Writhing pain, as a woman in child-birth.

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble: anguish took hold of him, and pangs as of a woman in travail.

In Context

42Bow and javelin, shall they grasp, Cruel, are they and will not have compassion, Their voice, like the sea, will roar, And, on horses, will they ride,—Set in array, as one man for battle, Against thee, O daughter of Babylon!

44Lo! as a lion, shall he come up from the majesty of the Jordan, Unto the pasture perennial, But I will wink—I will make them run away therefrom, Who then shall be the Chosen One whom against it, I may set in charge? For who shall be like unto, me? And who shall appoint me, a time? And who is the Shepherd that shall stand before me?
