12 Keep all your magic spells and charms;you have used them since you were young.Perhaps they will be of some help to you;perhaps you can frighten your enemies.
13 You are powerless in spite of the advice you get.Let your astrologers come forward and save you —those people who study the stars,who map out the zones of the heavensand tell you from month to monthwhat is going to happen to you.
14 “They will be like bits of straw,and a fire will burn them up!They will not even be able to save themselves —the flames will be too hot for them,not a cosy fire to warm themselves by.
15 That is all the good they will do you —those astrologers you've consulted all your life.They all will leave you and go their own way,and none will be left to save you.”
