6. the Lord Almighty will rescue you with violent thunderstorms and earthquakes. He will send tempests and raging fire;
7. then all the armies of the nations attacking the city of God's altar, all their weapons and equipment — everything — will vanish like a dream, like something imagined in the night.
8. All the nations that assemble to attack Jerusalem will be like a starving person who dreams he is eating and wakes up hungry, or like someone dying of thirst who dreams he is drinking and wakes with a dry throat.
9. Go ahead and be stupid! Go ahead and be blind! Get drunk without any wine! Stagger without drinking a drop!
