UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) Damascus has become very weak. It turns … seizes it

(Some words not found in UHB: feeble Dammeseq turned to,flee and,panic gripped anguish and,labor_pains taken_hold_of,her like_a,woman_in_labor )

Here “Damascus” represents the people who live there. Alternate translation: “The people of Damascus have become very weak. They turn … seizes them”

(Occurrence 0) terror seizes it

(Some words not found in UHB: feeble Dammeseq turned to,flee and,panic gripped anguish and,labor_pains taken_hold_of,her like_a,woman_in_labor )

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind the word terror, you can express the same idea with the verb “terrified.” Alternate translation: “Damascus is terrified” or “The people of Damascus are terrified”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

(Occurrence 0) Distress and pain seize it, like the pain of a woman giving birth

(Some words not found in UHB: feeble Dammeseq turned to,flee and,panic gripped anguish and,labor_pains taken_hold_of,her like_a,woman_in_labor )

This can be restated to remove the abstract nouns “distress” and “pain.” Alternate translation: “The people are afraid and suffering like a woman giving birth”
