How terrible for those who are pregnant and to those nursing infants in those days! For there will be great distress upon the land, and wrath against this people.
In context
21Then those in Judea must flee to the hills, those inside the city must get out, and those in the countryside must not go into it, 22for these are days of reckoning, when everything that is written will be fulfilled. 23How terrible for those who are pregnant and to those nursing infants in those days! For there will be great distress upon the land, and wrath against this people. 24They will fall by the edge of the sword and be led away captive among all the nations, and Jerusalem will be trampled by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles have run their course. 25There will be signs in the sun and the moon and the stars, and on the earth anguish among the nations, bewildered by the roar of the sea and its surge.
