Isaiah 29:8

Read Full Chapter
as when a hungry man dreams he is eating, then awakens still hungry; as when a thirsty man dreams he is drinking, then awakens faint and parched. So will it be for all the many nations who go to battle against Mount Zion.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
It will be like when a hungry man dreams, and behold, he eats; but he awakes, and his hunger isn’t satisfied; or like when a thirsty man dreams, and behold, he drinks; but he awakes, and behold, he is faint, and he is still thirsty. The multitude of all the nations that fight against Mount Zion will be like that.
World English Bible (WEB)
It shall even be as when an hungry{H7457} man dreameth{H2492}{(H8799)}, and, behold, he eateth{H398}{(H8802)}; but he awaketh{H6974}{(H8689)}, and his soul{H5315} is empty{H7386}: or as when{H834} a thirsty man{H6771} dreameth{H2492}{(H8799)}, and, behold, he drinketh{H8354}{(H8802)}; but he awaketh{H6974}{(H8689)}, and, behold, he is faint{H5889}, and his soul{H5315} hath appetite{H8264}{(H8802)}: so shall the multitude{H1995} of all the nations{H1471} be, that fight{H6633}{(H8802)} against mount{H2022} Zion{H6726}.

And it hath been, as when the hungry dreameth, And lo, he is eating, And he hath waked, and empty is his soul, And as when the thirsty dreameth, And lo, he is drinking, and he hath waked, And lo, he is weary, and his soul is longing, So is the multitude of all the nations Who are warring against mount Zion.
Young's Literal Translation
