Isaiah 47:11-13
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
11 But evil shall come upon you,
which you cannot charm away;
disaster shall fall upon you,
which you will not be able to ward off;
and ruin shall come on you suddenly,
of which you know nothing.
12 Stand fast in your enchantments
and your many sorceries,
with which you have labored from your youth;
perhaps you may be able to succeed,
perhaps you may inspire terror.
13 You are wearied with your many consultations;
let those who study[a] the heavens
stand up and save you,
those who gaze at the stars,
and at each new moon predict
what[b] shall befall you.

Isaiah 47:11-13
New International Version
11 Disaster(A) will come upon you,
and you will not know how to conjure it away.
A calamity will fall upon you
that you cannot ward off with a ransom;
a catastrophe you cannot foresee
will suddenly(B) come upon you.
12 “Keep on, then, with your magic spells
and with your many sorceries,(C)
which you have labored at since childhood.
Perhaps you will succeed,
perhaps you will cause terror.
13 All the counsel you have received has only worn you out!(D)
Let your astrologers(E) come forward,
those stargazers who make predictions month by month,
let them save(F) you from what is coming upon you.
