Outside, the sword will take their children, and inside, terror will strike the young man and the young woman, the infant and the gray-haired man.
Without bereave doth the sword, And at the inner-chambers--fear, Both youth and virgin, Suckling with man of grey hair.
From without shall the sword bereave them, and in the chambers, terror — Both the young man and the virgin, The suckling with the man of gray hairs.
