Your ·many [multitude of] enemies will become like fine dust;
    the many ·cruel people [ruthless hordes] will be like chaff that is blown away.
·Everything will happen very quickly [L Suddenly, in an instant…; C this phrase may go with what comes before or after].
    The Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts] will come
with thunder, earthquakes, and great noises,
    with ·storms [whirlwind], ·strong winds [tempest], and a fire that ·destroys [devours].
Then all the nations that fight against ·Jerusalem [L Ariel; v. 1]
    will be like a dream;
all the nations that ·attack [besiege; bring distress to] her
    will be like a vision in the night.
They will be like a hungry man who dreams he is eating,
    but when he awakens, he is still hungry.
They will be like a thirsty man who dreams he is drinking,
    but when he awakens, he is still weak and thirsty.
It will be the same way with ·all the [the multitude of] nations
    who fight against Mount Zion.
