⁸ As a dream he fleeth, and they find him not, And he is driven away as a vision of the night,

²⁰ As a dream from awakening, O Lord, In awaking, their image Thou despisest.

⁵ Thou hast inundated them, they are asleep, In the morning as grass he changeth.

⁷ And as a dream, a vision of night, hath been The multitude of all the nations Who are warring against Ariel, And all its warriors, and its bulwark, Even of those distressing her.

⁸ 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.

¹⁸ They thrust him from light unto darkness, And from the habitable earth cast him out.

²¹ Take him up doth an east wind, and he goeth, And it frighteneth him from his place,

²² And it casteth at him, and doth not spare, From its hand he diligently fleeth.

²³ It clappeth at him its hands, And it hisseth at him from his place.

¹⁰ And He rideth on a cherub, and doth fly, And He flieth on wings of wind.
