³ The spirit of Egypt will fail in its midst;
I will destroy their counsel,
And they will ^(A)consult the idols and the charmers,
The mediums and the sorcerers.

²⁵ Who ^(A)frustrates the signs ^(B)of the babblers,
And drives diviners mad;
Who turns wise men backward,
^(C)And makes their knowledge foolishness;
