All the people of the earth hearing the Egyptians crying is spoken of as if their laments filled the earth. Alternate translation: "All the people of the earth hear you crying" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hyperbole]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
