Isaiah 8:19-22 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

19. Someone may say to you, “Go to the fortune-tellers who make soft chirping sounds or ask the spirits of the dead. After all, a nation ought to be able to ask its own gods

20. what it should do.”None of those who talk like that will live to see the light of day!

21. They will go around in great pain and will become so hungry that they will angrily curse their king and their gods. And when they try to find help in heaven

22. and on earth, they will find only trouble and darkness, terrible trouble and deepest darkness.
