Without shall the sword bereave, And in the chambers terror; It shall destroy both young man and virgin, The suckling with the man of gray hairs.

Outside they will be cut off by the sword, and in the inner rooms by fear; death will take the young man and the virgin, the baby at the breast and the grey-haired man.

Εξωθεν μαχαιρα, και εσωθεν τρομος, θελει καταναλωσει τον τε νεον και την παρθενον, το θηλαζον νηπιον και τον πολιον γεροντα.

The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.
