Isaiah 29:7-9
GOD’S WORD Translation
7 The armies from all the nations will go to war against Ariel.
They will go to war against it, blockade it, and torment it.
All of this will be like a dream, like a vision in the night.
8 They will be like hungry people who dream that they’re eating
and wake up to find they’re hungry.
They will be like thirsty people who dream that they’re drinking
and wake up to find they’re lightheaded and parched with thirst.
This is what will happen to the armies from all the nations
that fight against Mount Zion.
9 If you confuse yourselves, you will be confused.
If you blind yourselves, you will be blinded.
You are drunk, but not from wine.
You stagger, but not from liquor.
Isaiah 29:7-9
New International Version
7 Then the hordes of all the nations(A) that fight against Ariel,(B)
that attack her and her fortress and besiege her,
will be as it is with a dream,(C)
with a vision in the night—
8 as when a hungry person dreams of eating,
but awakens(D) hungry still;
as when a thirsty person dreams of drinking,
but awakens faint and thirsty still.(E)
So will it be with the hordes of all the nations
that fight against Mount Zion.(F)
