Isaiah 47:7-9
New International Version
Isaiah 47:7-9
New International Version
7 You said, ‘I am forever(A)—
the eternal queen!’(B)
But you did not consider these things
or reflect(C) on what might happen.(D)
8 “Now then, listen, you lover of pleasure,
lounging in your security(E)
and saying to yourself,
‘I am, and there is none besides me.(F)
I will never be a widow(G)
or suffer the loss of children.’
9 Both of these will overtake you
in a moment,(H) on a single day:
loss of children(I) and widowhood.(J)
They will come upon you in full measure,
in spite of your many sorceries(K)
and all your potent spells.(L)
Isaiah 47:7-9
King James Version
Isaiah 47:7-9
King James Version
7 And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever: so that thou didst not lay these things to thy heart, neither didst remember the latter end of it.
8 Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside 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: they shall come upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine enchantments.
