The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Audivit rex Babylonis famam eorum, et dissolutæ sunt manus ejus : angustia apprehendit eum, dolor quasi parturientem.
Septuagint (Swete) shown from Jeremias 27:43
ἤκουσεν βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος τὴν ἀκοὴν αὐτῶν, καὶ παρελύθησαν αἱ χεῖρες αὐτοῦ· θλίψις κατεκράτησεν αὐτοῦ, ὠδῖνες ὡς τικτούσης.
Hebrew (WLC)
שָׁמַ֧ע מֶֽלֶךְ בָּבֶ֛ל אֶת שִׁמְעָ֖ם וְרָפ֣וּ יָדָ֑יו צָרָה֙ הֶחֱזִיקַ֔תְהוּ חִ֖יל כַּיּוֹלֵדָֽה
