10 “For you have trusted in your wickedness;
You have said, ‘No one asees me’;
Your wisdom and your knowledge have1 warped you;
And you have said in your heart,
‘I am, and there is no one else besides me.’
You have said, ‘No one asees me’;
Your wisdom and your knowledge have1 warped you;
And you have said in your heart,
‘I am, and there is no one else besides me.’
11 Therefore evil shall come upon you;
You shall not know from where it arises.
And trouble shall fall upon you;
You will not be able1 to put it off.
And adesolation shall come upon you bsuddenly,
Which you shall not know.
You shall not know from where it arises.
And trouble shall fall upon you;
You will not be able1 to put it off.
And adesolation shall come upon you bsuddenly,
Which you shall not know.
12 “Stand now with your enchantments
And the multitude of your sorceries,
In which you have labored from your youth—
Perhaps you will be able to profit,
Perhaps you will prevail.
And the multitude of your sorceries,
In which you have labored from your youth—
Perhaps you will be able to profit,
Perhaps you will prevail.
13 aYou are wearied in the multitude of your counsels;
Let now bthe astrologers, the stargazers,
And1 the monthly prognosticators
Stand up and save you
From what shall come upon you.
Let now bthe astrologers, the stargazers,
And1 the monthly prognosticators
Stand up and save you
From what shall come upon you.
14 Behold, they shall be aas stubble,
The fire shall bburn them;
They shall not deliver themselves
From the power of the flame;
It shall not be a coal to be warmed by,
Nor a fire to sit before!
The fire shall bburn them;
They shall not deliver themselves
From the power of the flame;
It shall not be a coal to be warmed by,
Nor a fire to sit before!
15 Thus shall they be to you
With whom you have labored,
aYour merchants from your youth;
They shall wander each one to his1 quarter.
No one shall save you.
With whom you have labored,
aYour merchants from your youth;
They shall wander each one to his1 quarter.
No one shall save you.
