Isaiah 47:11 in Context — Isaiah 47

9 Porém ambas estas coisas virão sobre ti, em um momento no mesmo dia: perda de filhos e viuvez; em completa totalidade virão sobre ti, por causa de tuas muitas feitiçarias, por causa da abundância de teus muitos encantamentos.

10 Pois confiaste em tua maldade, [e] disseste: Ninguém me vê.Tua sabedoria e teu conhecimento, esses te fizeram desviar, e disseste em teu coração: Somente eu, e ninguém mais.

11 Então virá sobre ti um mal do qual não saberás a origem, e destruição cairá sobre ti, a qual não poderás solucionar; porque virá sobre ti de repente [tão] tempestuosa assolação, que não poderás reconhecer [com antecedência] .

12 Fica [ainda] com teus encantamentos, e com as tuas muitas feitiçarias, em que trabalhaste desde a tua juventude; para [ver se] talvez ter algum proveito, ou quem sabe provoques algum medo.

13 Tu te cansaste com tantos conselhos que recebeste; levantem-se, pois, agora, os que observam o céu, os que contemplam as estrelas, os adivinhos das luas novas; e salvem-te daquilo que virá sobre ti.
