Isaiah 47:13-15
International Children’s Bible
13 You are tired of the advice you have received.
So let those who study the sky come.
They tell the future by looking at the stars.
So let them save you from what is about to happen to you.
14 But they are like straw.
Fire will quickly burn them up.
They cannot save themselves
from the power of the fire.
They are not like coals that give warmth.
They are not like a fire you may sit beside.
15 You have worked with these people.
They have been with you since you were young.
But they will not be able to help you.
Everyone will go his own way.
And there will be no one left to save you.”
Isaiah 47:13-15
New International Version
13 All the counsel you have received has only worn you out!(A)
Let your astrologers(B) come forward,
those stargazers who make predictions month by month,
let them save(C) you from what is coming upon you.
14 Surely they are like stubble;(D)
the fire(E) will burn them up.
They cannot even save themselves
from the power of the flame.(F)
These are not coals for warmth;
this is not a fire to sit by.
15 That is all they are to you—
these you have dealt with
and labored(G) with since childhood.
All of them go on in their error;
there is not one that can save(H) you.
