Isaiah 47:13-15
New International Reader's Version
13 All the advice you have received
has only worn you out!
Let those who study the heavens come forward.
They claim to know what is going to happen
by watching the stars every month.
So let them save you from the trouble
that is coming on you.
14 They are just like straw.
Fire will burn them up.
They can’t even save themselves
from the powerful flames.
These are not like coals that can warm anyone.
This is not like a fire to sit by.
15 They can’t do you any good.
You have done business with them ever since you were a child.
You have always asked them for advice.
All of them are bewildered and continue in their own ways.
None of them can 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.
