Isaiah 47:9-11

Expanded Bible

⁹ Two things will happen to you suddenly, in a single day.
    You will lose your children and ·your husband [^Lbecome a widow].
These things will ·truly happen to [or overwhelm; ^Lcome in abundance upon] you,
    in spite of all your ·magic [sorceries],
    in spite of your powerful ·tricks [spells; enchantments].
¹⁰ You ·do evil things, but you feel safe [^Ltrusted/felt secure in your evil/wickedness]
    and say, ‘No one sees ·what I do [^Lme].’
Your wisdom and knowledge
    have ·fooled [mislead] you.
You say to yourself,
    ‘·I am the only one [^LI am], and there is no other [v. 8].’
¹¹ But ·troubles [disaster; evil] will come ·to [upon] you,
    and you will not know how to ·stop them [conjure/charm it away].
·Disaster [Calamity; Destruction] will fall on you,
    and you will not be able to ·keep it away [appease it; make atonement/pay ransom for it].
A catastrophe will strike ·quickly [suddenly];
    you will not even ·see it coming [^Lknow].
