⁵ But in an instant your ruthless enemies, who seem too many to count,
    will become as fluttering dust, as wind-driven chaff.
They will be blown away in the snap of a finger.
⁶ For the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies, will visit you
    with thunder and earthquake and great noise,
With raging wind and tempest and consuming fire.
⁷ And all those armies intent on destroying Ariel,
    that great international coalition of Jerusalem’s enemies
Battering against the city of God, will disappear.
    They’ll evaporate like a night’s dream in the light of day.
