לְאִמֹּתָם֙ יֹֽאמְר֔וּ אַיֵּ֖ה דָּגָ֣ן וָיָ֑יִן בְּהִֽתְעַטְּפָ֤ם כֶּֽחָלָל֙ בִּרְחֹב֣וֹת עִ֔יר בְּהִשְׁתַּפֵּ֣ךְ נַפְשָׁ֔ם אֶל־חֵ֖יק אִמֹּתָֽם׃ (ס)
Mereka berkata kepada ibu-ibu mereka, “Di manakah gandum dan anggur?” ketika mereka jatuh lemas seperti orang yang terluka parah di lapangan-lapangan kota, ketika nyawa mereka tercurah di pangkuan ibu-ibu mereka.
Tze'enah Ure'enah
“Their mothers” [2:12]. They say to their mothers in their faintness, where is wheat or wine? They are like one who has been beaten in the streets of the city. Their life is pouring out in the laps of their mothers.
