כְּמ֤וֹ הָרָה֙ תַּקְרִ֣יב לָלֶ֔דֶת תָּחִ֥יל תִּזְעַ֖ק בַּחֲבָלֶ֑יהָ כֵּ֛ן הָיִ֥ינוּ מִפָּנֶ֖יךָ יְהוָֽה׃
Gaya ng babaeng nagdadalang-tao na malapit nang manganak, na namimilipit sa sakit at sumisigaw dahil sa matinding hirap ng panganganak, gayon kami sa harap Mo, O Walang-Hanggan.
Rashi
As a pregnant woman comes near to give birth, etc. So were we because of You; we see troubles being renewed, and we think that they are sorts of indications of salvation and redemption, for we are promised to be redeemed out of straits, as a woman giving birth.
Ibn Ezra
Like as a woman, etc. This verse describes the chastening mentioned in the preceding verse.
