Isaiah 29:3-9

3And I will campH2583 againstH5921 thee round aboutH5921, and will lay siege againstH5921 thee with a fort, and I will raiseH6965 siege worksH5921 againstH5921 thee.

4And thou shalt be broughtH1961 downH7817, and shalt speakH1696 out of the groundH776, and thy speechH1696 shall be lowH8213 out of the dustH6083; and thy voiceH6963 shall be as of one that hath a familiar spiritH178, out of the groundH776, and thy speechH1696 shall whisperH6850 out of the dustH6083.

5But the multitudeH1995 of thy foes shall be like small dustH80, and the multitudeH1995 of the terrible onesH6184 as chaffH4671 that passeth awayH5674: yea, it shall be at an instantH6621 suddenlyH6597.

6SheH5973 shall be visitedH6485 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 with thunderH6963, and with earthquakeH7494, and greatH1419 noiseH6963, with whirlwind and tempestH5591, and the flameH3851 of a devouringH398 fireH784.

7And the multitudeH1995 of allH3605 the nationsH1471 that fight againstH5921 ArielH740, evenH5921 allH3605 that fight againstH5921 herH3605 and herH3605 strong hold, and that distressH6693 herH3605, shall be as a dreamH2472, a visionH2377 of the nightH3915.

8And it shall be as when an hungryH7457 manH5315 dreameth, and, beholdH2009, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soulH5315 is emptyH7386: or as when a thirstyH6771 manH5315 dreameth, and, beholdH2009, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, beholdH2009, he is faintH5889, and his soulH5315 hath appetiteH5315: soH3651 shall the multitudeH1995 of allH3605 the nationsH1471 be, that fight againstH5921 mountH2022 ZionH6726.

9Tarry ye and wonderH8539, take your pleasure and be blindH8173: they are drunken, but notH3808 with wineH3196; they staggerH5128, but notH3808 with strongH7941 drinkH7941.
