And in those times there was no peace to him that went out, nor to him that came in, but great troubles were upon all the inhabitants of the countries.
For before these days there was no wage for man, nor any wage for beast; neither was there any peace to him who went out or came in because of the affliction: for I set all men every one against his neighbor.
And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
When the men of Israel saw that they were in difficulty, (for the people were distressed,) then the people hid themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.
