For I heard a cry as of a woman in labor, The anguish as of one giving birth to her first child, The cry of the daughter of Zion agasping for breath, bStretching out her hands, saying,"Ah, woe is me, for I faint before murderers."

"aI have kept silent for a long time, I have kept still and restrained Myself. Now like a woman in labor I will groan, I will both gasp and pant.
