Jeremiah 30:6-8
GOD’S WORD Translation
6 Ask now, and see: Can a man give birth to a child?
Why, then, do I see every strong man holding his stomach in pain
like a woman giving birth to a child?
Why has every face turned pale?
7 How terrible that day will be!
There will be no other day like it.
It will be a time of calamity for the descendants of Jacob,
but they will be rescued from it.
8 “On that day,” declares the Lord of Armies, “I will break the yokes [a] off your necks and tear off your ropes. Foreigners will no longer make you serve them.
