1 Thessalonians 5:3

3 For when they shall say peace is, and secureness, then sudden death shall come on them [+Soothly when they shall say peace and secureness, then suddenly perishing, or death, shall come to them], as sorrow to a woman that is with child, and they shall not escape.

1 Thessalonians 5:3 In-Context

1 But, brethren, of times and moments ye need not that I write to you.
2 For ye yourselves know diligently, that the day of the Lord shall come, as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say peace is, and secureness, then sudden death shall come on them [+Soothly when they shall say peace and secureness, then suddenly perishing, or death, shall come to them], as sorrow to a woman that is with child, and they shall not escape.
4 But, brethren, ye be not in darknesses, that that day as a thief catch you.
5 For all ye be the sons of light, and sons of [the] day; we be not of night, neither of darknesses.
