Isaiah 29:8

And it shall be as when a hungry man dreams,
and behold, he eats but he wakes up and his soul is empty (his inner being is empty),
or as when a thirsty man dreams,
and behold, he drinks, but he wakes up and behold, he is weak and his soul is hungry,
so shall the multitudes of all the nations be
that fought against Zion.

καὶ ἔσονται ὡς οἱ ἐν ὕπνῳ πίνοντες καὶ ἔσθοντες καὶ ἐξαναστάντων μάταιον αὐτῶν τὸ ἐνύπνιον καὶ ὃν τρόπον ἐνυπνιάζεται ὁ διψῶν ὡς πίνων καὶ ἐξαναστὰς ἔτι διψᾷ ἡ δὲ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ εἰς κενὸν ἤλπισεν οὕτως ἔσται ὁ πλοῦτος πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν ὅσοι ἐπεστράτευσαν ἐπὶ τὸ ὄρος Σιων
