Isaiah 47:9-11

International Children’s Bible

⁹ Two things will happen to you
    suddenly in a single day.
    You will lose your children and your husband.
These things will truly happen to you.
    All your magic and powerful tricks
    will not save you.
¹⁰ You do evil things, but you feel safe.
    You say, ‘No one sees what I do.’
Your wisdom and knowledge
    have fooled you.
You say to yourself,
    ‘I am God. No one is equal to me.’
¹¹ But troubles will come to you.
    You will not know how to stop them.
Disaster will fall on you.
    And you will not be able to keep it away.
You will be destroyed quickly.
    You will not even see it coming.
