Parallel JER 30:6

---

BSB Ask now, and see:
 ⇔ Can a male give birth?
 ⇔ Why then do I see every man
 ⇔ with his hands on his stomach like a woman in labor
 ⇔ and every face turned pale?

OEB Ask ye now and see
 ⇔ If a man doth travail with child.
 ⇔ What meaneth them this sight–
 ⇔ Every man with his hands on his loins?
 ⇔ And what mean all these faces
 ⇔ Turned to a deathly pallor?

WEB Ask now, and see whether a man travails with child.
 ⇔ Why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail,
 ⇔ and all faces are turned pale?

WMB (Same as above)

NET Ask yourselves this and consider it carefully:
 ⇔ Have you ever seen a man give birth to a baby?
 ⇔ Why then do I see all these strong men
 ⇔ grabbing their stomachs in pain like a woman giving birth?
 ⇔ And why do their faces
 ⇔ turn so deathly pale?

LSV Now ask and see, is a male bringing forth? Why have I seen every man
[With] his hands on his loins, as a travailing woman,
And all faces have been turned to paleness?

FBV Think about it! Can men give birth? No. So why do I see every man holding his stomach with his hands like a woman in labor. Why is every face white as a sheet?

T4T But think about this:
 ⇔ Men certainly do not [RHQ] give birth to babies.
 ⇔ Therefore, why do strong men stand there,
 ⇔ with their faces very white/pale,
 ⇔ with their hands pressed against their stomachs,
 ⇔ like women who are about to give birth to babies?

LEB  •  Why do I see every strong man •  with his hands on his loins like a woman giving birth? •  And why are all their faces changed to paleness?

BBE Put the question and see if it is possible for a man to have birth-pains: why do I see every man with his hands gripping his sides, as a woman does when the pains of birth are on her, and all faces are turned green?
