Isaiah 47:15

The Humiliation of Babylon

14Surely they are like stubble; the fire will burn them up. They cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame. There will be no coals to warm them or fire to sit beside. 15This is what they are to you— those with whom you have labored and traded from youth— each one strays in his own direction; not one of them can save you.
