Isaiah 47:12-14

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹² So take your stand with your spells
and your many sorceries,
which you have wearied yourself with from your youth.
Perhaps you will be able to succeed;
perhaps you will inspire terror!
¹³ You are worn out with your many consultations.
So let them stand and save you—
the astrologers,^[a] who observe the stars,^(A)
who predict monthly
what will happen to you.
¹⁴ Look, they are like stubble;^(B)
fire burns them up.^(C)
They cannot deliver themselves
from the power^[b] of the flame.
This is not a coal for warming themselves,
or a fire to sit beside!
