Isaiah 47:13-15
New American Standard Bible
13 You are (A)wearied with your many counsels;
Let now the (B)astrologers,
Those who prophesy by the stars,
Those who predict by the new moons,
Stand up and (C)save you from what will come upon you.
14 Behold, they have become (D)like stubble,
(E)Fire burns them;
They cannot save themselves from the power of the flame;
There will be (F)no coal to warm by
Nor a fire to sit before!
15 So have those become to you with whom you have labored,
Those who have (G)done business with you from your youth;
Each has wandered in his own [a]way;
There is (H)no one to save you.
