Isaiah 29:5–10

5 But your many enemies will become like fine dust,q

the ruthlessr hordes like blown chaff.s

Suddenly,t in an instant,

6 the Lord Almighty will comeu

with thunderv and earthquakew and great noise,

with windstorm and tempestx and flames of a devouring fire.y

7 Then the hordes of all the nationsz that fight against Ariel,a

that attack her and her fortress and besiege her,

will be as it is with a dream,b

with a vision in the night—

8 as when a hungry person dreams of eating,

but awakensc hungry still;

as when a thirsty person dreams of drinking,

but awakens faint and thirsty still.d

So will it be with the hordes of all the nations

that fight against Mount Zion.e

9 Be stunned and amazed,f

blind yourselves and be sightless;g

be drunk,h but not from wine,i

stagger,j but not from beer.

10 The Lord has brought over you a deep sleep:k

He has sealed your eyesl (the prophets);m

he has covered your heads (the seers).n
