Isaiah 29:7-8
New English Translation
Isaiah 29:7-8
New English Translation
7 It will be like a dream, a night vision.
There will be a horde from all the nations that fight against Ariel,
those who attack her and her stronghold and besiege her.
8 It will be like a hungry man dreaming that he is eating,
only to awaken and find that his stomach is empty.[a]
It will be like a thirsty man dreaming that he is drinking,
only to awaken and find that he is still weak and his thirst unquenched.[b]
So it will be for the horde from all the nations
that fight against Mount Zion.

but awakens faint and thirsty still.(E)
So will it be with the hordes of all the nations
that fight against Mount Zion.(F)
