8. It will be like when a hungry person dreams of eatingbut wakes up and the mouth is empty.Or when a thirsty person dreams of drinkingbut wakes up and has a dry throat.So will it be for all the horde of nationswho fight against Mount Zion.
9. Be shocked and stunned;blind yourselves; be blind!Be drunk, but not on wine;stagger, but not on account of beer!
10. The Lord has poured on you a spirit of deep sleep,and has shut your eyes, you prophets,and covered your heads, you seers.
11. This entire vision has become for you like the words of a sealed scroll. When they give it to one who can read, saying, "Read this," that one will say, "I can’t, because it’s sealed."
