Isaiah 47:12–15

¹²So take your stand with your spells

and with your many sorceries,

with which you have wearied yourself

from your youth.

Perhaps you will succeed;

perhaps you will inspire terror!

¹³You are wearied by your many counselors;

let them come forward now and save you—

your astrologers who observe the stars,

who monthly predict your fate.

¹⁴Surely they are like stubble;

the fire will burn them up.

They cannot deliver themselves

from the power of the flame.

There will be no coals to warm them

or fire to sit beside.

¹⁵This is what they are to you —

those with whom you have labored and traded from youth—

each one strays in his own direction;

not one of them can save you.’’
