4. You shall speak from beneath the earth,and from the dust below, your words shall come.Your voice shall be that of a ghost from the earth,and your words shall whisper from the dust.
5. The horde of your arrogant shall be like fine dust,a horde of tyrants like flying chaff.Then suddenly, in an instant,
6. you shall be visited by the Lord of hosts,With thunder, earthquake, and great noise,whirlwind, storm, and the flame of consuming fire.
7. Then like a dream,a vision of the night,Shall be the horde of all the nationswho make war against Ariel:All the outposts, the siege works against it,all who distress it.
8. As when a hungry man dreams he is eatingand awakens with an empty stomach,Or when a thirsty man dreams he is drinkingand awakens faint, his throat parched,So shall the horde of all the nations be,who make war against Mount Zion.
9. Stupefy yourselves and stay stupid;blind yourselves and stay blind!You who are drunk, but not from wine,who stagger, but not from strong drink!
