- Isaiah 47:13
You are wearied by your many counselors; let them come forward now and save you— your astrologers who observe the stars, who monthly predict your fate.
Commentary on Isaiah 47:132 voices
Thou art wearied - Thou hast practiced so many arts, and practiced them so long, that thou art exhausted in them. The counsels here referred to, are those which the astrologers and diviners would take in examining the prognostications, and the supposed indications of future events. Let now the astrologers - Call in now the aid of the various classes of diviners on whom thou hast relied to save thee from the impending calamity and ruin.

GESENIUS explains it: the dividers of the heavens. In casting a nativity they observed four signs:--the horoscope, or sign which arose at the time one was born; the mid-heaven; the sign opposite the horoscope towards the west; and the hypogee. monthly prognosticators--those who at each new moon profess to tell thereby what is about to happen.
