Damascus is waxed feeble, she turneth herself to flee, and trembling hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.

Damascus has become feeble, she is turned to flight, fear has taken her in its grip: pain and sorrows have come on her, as on a woman in birth-pains.

Η Δαμασκος παρελυθη, εστραφη εις φυγην, και τρομος κατελαβεν αυτην· αγωνια και πονοι εκυριευσαν αυτην ως τικτουσης.

Damascus is waxed feeble, and turneth herself to flee, and fear hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken her, as a woman in travail.
