The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.

Verse 25 is found in chapter 32 of Deuteronomy. Jeshurun grows fat and abandons the Rock who created him, following foreign gods. Prosperity again becomes the context of unfaithfulness. God announces judgment and the hiding of his face, but also limits the extent of destruction so that Israel’s enemies will not attribute its downfall to their own superiority.

Auswendig wird sie das Schwert berauben und inwendig der Schrecken, beide, Jünglinge und Jungfrauen, die Säuglinge mit dem grauen Mann.
De fuera desolará la espada, Y dentro de las cámaras el espanto: Así al mancebo como a la doncella, Al que mama como el hombre cano.
Au dehors, on périra par l'épée, Et au dedans, par d'effrayantes calamités: Il en sera du jeune homme comme de la jeune fille, De l'enfant à la mamelle comme du vieillard.
La spada dipopolerà di fuori E dentro delle camerette lo spavento; Giovani e fanciulle, Bambini di poppa e uomini canuti
Por fora devastará a espada, e por dentro o pavor; ao jovem, juntamente com a virgem, assim à criança de peito como ao homem encanecido.
外有刀劍使人喪亡, 內有驚恐, 少男少女是如此, 吃奶的、白髮的也是如此。
