Isaiah 29:5-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 But the multitude of your arrogant ones[a] shall be like fine dust
and the multitude of tyrants like flying chaff.
And in an instant, suddenly,(A)
6 you will be visited by the Lord of hosts
with thunder and earthquake and great noise,
with whirlwind and tempest and the flame of a devouring fire.(B)
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel,
all that fight against her and her stronghold and who distress her,
shall be like a dream, a vision of the night.(C)
8 Just as when a hungry person dreams of eating
and wakes up still hungry
or a thirsty person dreams of drinking
and wakes up faint, still thirsty,
so shall the multitude of all the nations be
that fight against Mount Zion.(D)

Isaiah 29:5-8
English Standard Version
5 But the multitude of your foreign foes shall be like (A)small dust,
and the multitude of the ruthless like passing chaff.
(B)And in an instant, suddenly,
6 (C)you will be visited by the Lord of hosts
with thunder and with earthquake and great noise,
with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire.
7 And (D)the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel,
all that fight against her and her stronghold and distress her,
shall be (E)like a dream, a vision of the night.
8 (F)As when a hungry man dreams, and behold, he is eating,
and awakes with his hunger not satisfied,
or as when a thirsty man dreams, and behold, he is drinking,
and awakes faint, with his thirst not quenched,
so shall the multitude of all the nations be
that fight against Mount Zion.
Isaiah 29:5-8
New International Version
5 But your many enemies will become like fine dust,(A)
the ruthless(B) hordes like blown chaff.(C)
Suddenly,(D) in an instant,
6 the Lord Almighty will come(E)
with thunder(F) and earthquake(G) and great noise,
with windstorm and tempest(H) and flames of a devouring fire.(I)
7 Then the hordes of all the nations(J) that fight against Ariel,(K)
that attack her and her fortress and besiege her,
will be as it is with a dream,(L)
with a vision in the night—
8 as when a hungry person dreams of eating,
but awakens(M) hungry still;
as when a thirsty person dreams of drinking,
but awakens faint and thirsty still.(N)
So will it be with the hordes of all the nations
that fight against Mount Zion.(O)
