Isaiah 47:13-15

The Voice

¹³     All of your scheming has only exhausted you.
        Let the astrologers step up and save you,
    After all they chart the heavens, read the stars,
        and predict the future month after month.
¹⁴     Look, they’re like dry straw that ignites in a flash and is burned away.
        They cannot help you—they cannot help themselves
    From the power of the flame.
        And this is not some warm and cozy fire shared among friends!
¹⁵     So that’s what they’re worth to you—absolutely nothing,
        even after all these years of working together.
    They’re gone. No one’s left to rescue you.
