Isaiah 47:11-15 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

11. “But disaster is coming your way. You don’t know when it will happen, but disaster is coming. And there is nothing you can do to stop it.

12. You worked hard all your life learning magic and spells. So start using that magic. Maybe those spells will help you. Maybe you will be able to frighten someone.

13. You have many advisors. Are you tired of the advice they give? Then send out your men who read the stars. They can tell when the month starts, so maybe they can tell you when your troubles will come.

14. But they cannot even save themselves. They will burn like straw. They will burn so fast that there will be no coals left to cook bread. There will be no fire left to sit by.

15. That’s what will happen to those you have worked with, the people you did business with all your life. They will all go their own way. There will be no one left to save you.”
