Isaiah 47:8-11

Tree of Life Version

⁸ Now then, hear this, voluptuous one,
dwelling securely, saying in your heart,
“I am, and there is no one besides me!
I will not sit as a widow,
or know the loss of children,”
⁹ These two things will come upon you
in a moment, in one day—
loss of children and widowhood—
they will come upon you in full measure
in spite of your many sorceries
    and your many spells.
¹⁰ You felt secure in your wickedness,
You said, “No one sees me.”
Your wisdom and your knowledge
    led you astray,
so you have said in your heart,
“I am—there is no one else beside me!”
¹¹ But calamity will come upon you.
You won’t know how to charm it away.
Disaster will fall on you,
    for which you cannot atone.
Catastrophe you cannot foresee
    will suddenly come upon you.
