Jeremiah 4:31 For I have heard the voice as of a woman in travail; anguishes, as of a woman in labour of a child. The voice of the daughter of Sion, dying away, spreading her hands: Woe is me, for my soul hath fainted because of them that are slain.

Child. Hebrew and Septuagint, "a first-born," when the pains are most acute. (Calmet)
