Isaiah 29:3-7 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

3. I will encamp like David against you;I will circle you with outpostsand set up siege works against you.

4. You shall speak from beneath the earth,and from the dust below, your words shall come.Your voice shall be that of a ghost from the earth,and your words shall whisper from the dust.

5. The horde of your arrogant shall be like fine dust,a horde of tyrants like flying chaff.Then suddenly, in an instant,

6. you shall be visited by the Lord of hosts,With thunder, earthquake, and great noise,whirlwind, storm, and the flame of consuming fire.

7. Then like a dream,a vision of the night,Shall be the horde of all the nationswho make war against Ariel:All the outposts, the siege works against it,all who distress it.
