The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Contritio super contritionem vocata est, et vastata est omnis terra : repente vastata sunt tabernacula mea ; subito pelles meæ.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ ταλαιπωρίαν συντριμμὸν ἐπικαλεῖται, ὅτι τεταλαιπώρηκεν πᾶσα ἡ γῆ, ἄφνω τεταλαιπώρηκεν ἡ σκηνή, διεσπάσθησαν αἱ δέρρεις μου.
Hebrew (WLC)
שֶׁ֤בֶר עַל שֶׁ֨בֶר֙ נִקְרָ֔א כִּ֥י שֻׁדְּדָ֖ה כָּל הָאָ֑רֶץ פִּתְאֹם֙ שֻׁדְּד֣וּ אֹהָלַ֔י רֶ֖גַע יְרִיעֹתָֽי

Haydock's commentary

Moment. The cities are destroyed as easily as a tent.
