Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
And when they ask, ‘Why are you groaning?’ you are to say, ‘Because of the news that is coming. Every heart will melt, and every hand will go limp. Every spirit will faint, and every knee will turn to water.’ Yes, it is coming and it will surely happen, declares the Lord GOD.”

King James Version (KJV)
And it shall be, when they say unto thee, Wherefore sighest thou? that thou shalt answer, For the tidings; because it cometh: and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: behold, it cometh, and shall be brought to pass, saith the Lord GOD.

Reina-Valera 1909 (RVR 1909)
Y será, que cuando te dijeren: ¿Por qué gimes tú? dirás: Por la fama que viene; y todo corazón se desleirá, y todas manos se debilitarán, y angustiaráse todo espíritu, y todas rodillas se irán en aguas: he aquí que viene, y hacerse ha, dice el Señor Jehová.

Nueva Biblia Viva (NBV)
Cuando te pregunten por qué sufres tanto, diles: “A causa de la espantosa noticia que Dios me ha dado. ¡Cuando se cumpla, aun el corazón del más plantado se derretirá de pavor y perderá toda su fuerza! ¡Todo ánimo se vendrá a los suelos, las rodillas más fuertes temblarán y se volverán endebles como el agua!”. Y el Señor Dios dice: “¡Tu condena ya viene, Israel, mi castigo por tu maldad e infidelidad está por llegar!”».
