Isaiah 29:8-10
Holman Christian Standard Bible
8 It will be like a hungry one who dreams he is eating,
then wakes and is still hungry;
and like a thirsty one who dreams he is drinking,
then wakes and is still thirsty, longing for water.
So it will be for all the many nations
who go to battle against Mount Zion.
9 Stop and be astonished;
blind yourselves and be blind!
They are drunk,[a] but not with wine;
they stagger,[b] but not with beer.(A)
10 For the Lord has poured out on you
an overwhelming urge to[c] sleep;(B)
He has shut your eyes—the prophets,
and covered your heads—the seers.(C)
