Isaiah 47:10-12

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹⁰ You felt secure in your wickedness;
    you said, ‘No one sees me.’
Your wisdom and your knowledge
    led you astray,
and you said in your heart,
    ‘I am, and there is no one besides me.’
¹¹ But evil shall come upon you,
    which you cannot charm away;
disaster shall fall upon you,
    which you will not be able to ward off;
and ruin shall come on you suddenly,
    of which you know nothing.

¹² Stand fast in your enchantments
    and your many sorceries,
    with which you have laboured from your youth;
perhaps you may be able to succeed,
    perhaps you may inspire terror.
