Jeremiah 30:6-8

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁶Ask now, and see,
    can a man bear a child?
Why then do I see every man
    with his hands on his loins like a woman in labor?
    Why has every face turned pale?
⁷Alas! that day is so great
    there is none like it;
it is a time of distress for Jacob;
    yet he shall be saved out of it.

⁸“And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord of hosts, that I will break the yoke from off their^[a] neck, and I will burst their^[b] bonds, and strangers shall no more make servants of them.^[c]^[d]
