Isaiah 47:8-11
Legacy Standard Bible
8 “So now, hear this, you (A)sensual one,
Who (B)sits securely,
Who says in [a]your heart,
‘(C)I am, and there is no one besides me.
I will (D)not sit as a widow,
Nor know loss of children.’
9 But these (E)two things will come on you (F)suddenly in one day:
Loss of children and widowhood.
They will come on you in full measure
In spite of your many (G)sorceries,
In spite of the great might of your spells.
10 You felt (H)secure in your evil and said,
‘(I)No one sees me,’
Your (J)wisdom and your knowledge [b]have turned you astray;
So you have said in your heart,
‘(K)I am, and there is no one besides me.’
11 But (L)evil will come on you
Which you will not know how to charm away;
And disaster will fall on you
For which you cannot atone;
And (M)destruction about which you do not know
Will come on you (N)suddenly.

Isaiah 47:8-11
American Standard Version
8 Now therefore hear this, thou that art given to pleasures, that [a]sittest securely, that sayest in thy heart, I am, and there is none else besides me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children: 9 but these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood; in their full measure shall they come upon thee, in the multitude of thy sorceries, and the great abundance of thine enchantments. 10 For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness; thou hast said, None seeth me; thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee, and thou hast said in thy heart, I am, and there is none else besides me. 11 Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know [b]the dawning thereof: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it away: and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou knowest not.
