10 “For you have trusted in your wickedness;
You have said, ‘No one (A)sees me’;
Your wisdom and your knowledge have [a]warped you;
And you have said in your heart,
‘I am, and there is no one else besides me.’
11 Therefore evil shall come upon you;
You shall not know from where it arises.
And trouble shall fall upon you;
You will not be able [b]to put it off.
And (B)desolation shall come upon you (C)suddenly,
Which you shall not know.
12 “Stand now with your enchantments
And the multitude of your sorceries,
In which you have labored from your youth—
Perhaps you will be able to profit,
Perhaps you will prevail.
13 (D)You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels;
Let now (E)the[c] astrologers, the stargazers,
And [d]the monthly prognosticators
Stand up and save you
From what shall come upon you.

10 You have trusted(A) in your wickedness
and have said, ‘No one sees me.’(B)
Your wisdom(C) and knowledge mislead(D) you
when you say to yourself,
‘I am, and there is none besides me.’
11 Disaster(E) will come upon you,
and you will not know how to conjure it away.
A calamity will fall upon you
that you cannot ward off with a ransom;
a catastrophe you cannot foresee
will suddenly(F) come upon you.
12 “Keep on, then, with your magic spells
and with your many sorceries,(G)
which you have labored at since childhood.
Perhaps you will succeed,
perhaps you will cause terror.
13 All the counsel you have received has only worn you out!(H)
Let your astrologers(I) come forward,
those stargazers who make predictions month by month,
let them save(J) you from what is coming upon you.
