According to Jeremiah, people are very scared and feeling weak because they heard about something big and frightening coming their way. It's like a mom having a baby, where she feels a lot of pain and worry.
Jeremiah 6:24: We have heard the fame thereof: our hands wax feeble: anguish hath taken hold of us, [and] pain, as of a woman in travail.
Contradicts Jeremiah 6:24 by emphasizing a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind, which contrasts with the fear and anguish described in Jeremiah 6:24.
2 Timothy 1:7: For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
