Isaiah 47:13-15
Lexham English Bible
Isaiah 47:13-15
Lexham English Bible
13 You struggle with your many consultations;[a]
let them stand, now, and save you—
those who see the stars, divide the celestial sphere,[b]
who inform by new moons—
from those things that are coming upon you.
14 Look! They are like stubble;
the fire burns them completely.
They cannot deliver themselves[c] from the power[d] of the flame;
there is no coal for warming oneself,[e]
no fire before which to sit.
15 So are to you those with whom you have labored,
your traders from your youth.
They wander, each to his side;
there is no one who can save you.

Isaiah 47:13-15
New International Version
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.
