Isaiah 47:14 in context

  1. 12“Stand now with your enchantments
    and with the multitude of your sorceries,
    in which you have labored from your youth,
    as if you might profit,
    as if you might prevail.
  2. 13You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels.
    Now let the astrologers, the stargazers, and the monthly prognosticators, stand up and save you from the things that will happen to you.
  3. 14Behold, they are like stubble.
    The fire will burn them.
    They won’t deliver themselves from the power of the flame.
    It won’t be a coal to warm at
    or a fire to sit by.
  4. 15The things that you labored in will be like this:
    those who have trafficked with you from your youth will each wander in his own way.
    There will be no one to save you.
