Joel 2:6

"She is empty, and void, and waste: and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and much pain is in all loins, and the faces of them all gather blackness."

"And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames. one...: Heb. every man at his neighbour"

"Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?"

"Their visage is blacker than a coal; they are not known in the streets: their skin cleaveth to their bones; it is withered, it is become like a stick. blacker...: Heb. darker than blackness"

"For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt; I am black; astonishment hath taken hold on me."

"For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy statutes."
