4 You shall be brought down, and shall speak from the ground,and from the dust where you are prostrate your speech shall come;your voice shall also be as that of a ghost from the ground;and your speech shall whisper from the dust.
5 Moreover the multitude of your enemies shall become like fine dust,and the multitude of the ruthless ones as chaff which blows away;and it shall happen in an instant, suddenly.
6 You shall be punished from the Lord of Hostswith thunder and earthquake and loud noise,with storm and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire.
7 The multitude of all the nations who fight against Ariel,even all who fight against her and her stronghold, and who distress her,shall be as a dreamof a night vision.
8 It shall even be as when a hungry man dreams, and he eats;but when he awakens, his hunger is not satisfied;or as when a thirsty man dreams, and he is drinking;but when he awakens, he is faint, and his thirst is not quenched;so shall the multitude of all the nations bewho fight against Mount Zion.
9 Be delayed and wait,blind yourselves and be blind.They are drunk, but not with wine.They stagger, but not with strong drink.
10 For the Lord has poured out on you the spirit of deep sleepand has closed your eyes, the prophets;and He has covered your heads, the seers.
