Isaiah 47:9Easy To Read VersionThese two things will happen to you:\par First, you will lose your children.\par And then you will lose your husband.\par Yes, these things will really happen to you.\par And all of your magic\par and all of your powerful tricks\par will not save you.\par See the chapter |
The enemy will attack with swords\par and kill the people.\par They will kill the survivors {\cf2\super [129]} from Judah.\par A woman might have seven sons,\par \{but they will all die.\}\par She will cry and cry\par until she becomes weak\par and not able to breathe.\par She will be upset and confused.\par Her bright day will become dark from sadness.”\par
The king called for the men of magic and Chaldeans {\cf2\super [53]} to be brought to him. He said to these wise men, “I will give a reward to any man that can read this writing and explain to me what it means. I will give purple clothes {\cf2\super [54]} to that man. I will put a gold chain around his neck, and I will make him the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”
But the people who are cowards, people who refuse to believe, people who do terrible things, people who kill, people who sin sexually, people who do evil magic, people who worship idols, {\cf2\super [159]} and people who tell lies—all those people will have a place in the lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
