AΩ
8

It shall even be as when an hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion.

Isaiah 29:8 · KJV

Translations

ASV

And it shall be as when a hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion.

BBE

And it will be like a man desiring food, and dreaming that he is feasting; but when he is awake there is nothing in his mouth: or like a man in need of water, dreaming that he is drinking; but when he is awake he is feeble and his soul is full of desire: so will all the nations be which make war on Mount Zion.

GRK

Καθως μαλιστα ο πεινων ονειρευεται οτι ιδου, τρωγει· πλην εξεγειρεται και η ψυχη αυτου ειναι κενη· η καθως ο διψων ονειρευεται οτι ιδου, πινει· πλην εξεγειρεται και ιδου, ειναι ητονημενος και η ψυχη αυτου διψα· ουτω θελουσιν εισθαι τα πληθη παντων των εθνων των πολεμουντων εναντιον του ορους Σιων.

KJV

It shall even be as when an hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion.
