LORD, they came
to you in their distress; when you disciplined them, they could barely
whisper a prayer. As a pregnant woman about to give birth writhes and
cries out in her pain, so were we in your presence, LORD. We were with
child, we writhed in labor, but we gave birth to wind. We have not
brought salvation to the earth, and the people of the world have not
come to life.
As a pregnant woman about to give birth
Isaiah 21:3 At this my body is racked with pain, pangs seize me, like those of a woman in labor; I am staggered by what I hear, I am bewildered by what I see.
John 16:21 "A woman giving birth to a child has pain because her time has come; but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world."
Revelation 12:1-2 A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth.
but we gave birth to wind
Isaiah 33:11 "You conceive chaff, you give birth to straw; your breath is a fire that consumes you."
Isaiah 59:4 No one calls for justice; no one pleads a case with integrity. They rely on empty arguments, they utter lies; they conceive trouble and give birth to evil.
