Isaiah 29:3-9
3And I will campH2583 against thee round aboutH1754, and will lay siegeH6696 against thee with a mountH4674, and I will raiseH6965 fortsH4694 against thee. 4And thou shalt be brought downH8213, and shalt speakH1696 out of the groundH776, and thy speechH565 shall be lowH7817 out of the dustH6083, and thy voiceH6963 shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spiritH178, out of the groundH776, and thy speechH565 shall whisperH6850 out of the dustH6083.1 5Moreover the multitudeH1995 of thy strangersH2114 shall be like smallH1851 dustH80, and the multitudeH1995 of the terrible onesH6184 shall be as chaffH4671 that passeth awayH5674: yea, it shall be at an instantH6621 suddenlyH6597. 6Thou shalt be visitedH6485 of YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635 with thunderH7482, and with earthquakeH7494, and greatH1419 noiseH6963, with stormH5492 and tempestH5591, and the flameH3851 of devouringH398 fireH784.
7And the multitudeH1995 of all the nationsH1471 that fightH6633 against ArielH740, even all that fightH6638 against her and her munitionH4685, and that distressH6693 her, shall be as a dreamH2472 of a nightH3915 visionH2377. 8It shall even be as when an hungryH7457 man dreamethH2492, and, behold, he eatethH398; but he awakethH6974, and his soulH5315 is emptyH7386: or as whenH834 a thirsty manH6771 dreamethH2492, and, behold, he drinkethH8354; but he awakethH6974, and, behold, he is faintH5889, and his soulH5315 hath appetiteH8264: so shall the multitudeH1995 of all the nationsH1471 be, that fightH6633 against mountH2022 ZionH6726.
9StayH4102 yourselves, and wonderH8539; cry ye outH8173, and cryH8173: they are drunkenH7937, but not with wineH3196; they staggerH5128, but not with strong drinkH7941.2
