aPangs1 and sorrows will take hold of them;
They will be in pain as a woman in childbirth;
They will be amazed at one another;
Their faces will be like flames.
Cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger,
To lay the land desolate;
And He will destroy bits sinners from it.
Will not give their light;
The sun will be adarkened in its going forth,
And the moon will not cause its light to shine.

Articles, Bible studies, and sermons that contain Isaiah 13:8:
Isaiah 13:6-8
One explanation of this verse put forth relatively recently is that this is referring to biotechnology that will allow for a womb transplant into a man, such that a biological male, with surgical alteration, could give birth. But that misses the essence of what God is portraying here. He is saying that since it is obvious that men cannot give birth—that is part of what makes us men—then why does He see every man (and not just some confused, post-operative individuals) holding their bellies and turning pale like they are in labor?
