Before she is pained she hath brought forth, Before a pang cometh to her, She hath delivered a male.

In The King James Version

Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.

In Context

8Who hath heard anything like this? Who hath seen anything like these? Is earth caused to bring forth in one day? Born is a nation at once? For she hath been pained, Zion also hath borne her sons.
