Isaiah 47:12-13
New American Standard Bible
12 “Persist now in your (A)spells
And in your many sorceries
With which you have labored from your youth;
Perhaps you will be able to benefit,
Perhaps you may cause trembling.
13 You are (B)wearied with your many counsels;
Let now the (C)astrologers,
Those who prophesy by the stars,
Those who predict by the new moons,
Stand up and (D)save you from what will come upon you.
Nahum 3:3-4
New American Standard Bible
3 Horsemen charging,
Swords flashing, (A)spears gleaming,
(B)Many killed, a mass of corpses,
And there is (C)no end to the dead bodies—
They stumble over [a]the dead bodies!
4 All because of the (D)many sexual acts of the prostitute,
The charming one, the (E)mistress of sorceries,
Who (F)sells nations by her sexual acts,
And families by her sorceries.
