But the multitude of your [a]enemies will become like fine (A)dust,
And the multitude of the (B)ruthless ones like the chaff which [b]blows away;
And it will happen (C)instantly, suddenly.
From the Lord of armies you will be (D)punished with (E)thunder and earthquake and loud noise,
With whirlwind and tempest and the flame of a consuming fire.
And the (F)multitude of all the nations who wage war against [c]Ariel,
Even all who wage war against her and her stronghold, and who distress her,
Will be like a dream, a (G)vision of the night.
It will be as when a hungry person dreams—
And behold, he is eating;
But when he awakens, his [d]hunger is not satisfied,
Or as when a thirsty person dreams—
And behold, he is drinking,
But when he awakens, behold, he is faint
And his [e]thirst is not quenched.
(H)So will the multitude of all the nations be
Who wage war against Mount Zion.

But[a] the multitude of your strangers shall be like fine dust,
    and the multitude of tyrants like chaff that passes by.

And it will happen in an instant, suddenly.

You will be punished by Yahweh of hosts

with thunder and earthquake and great sound,
    storm wind and tempest and the flame of a devouring fire.
And the multitude of all the nations who fight against Ariel,
    all those who fight against her and her stronghold,
        and those who inflict her shall be like a dream, a vision of the night.
And it shall be as when the hungry person dreams—look, he is eating!
    And he wakes up and his inner self is empty.
Or[b] as when the thirsty person dreams—look, he is drinking!
    And he wakes up and look, he is faint,
    and his inner self is longing for water.
So shall be the multitude of all the nations who fight against Mount Zion.
