Isaiah 47:10 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Thou hast trusted in thy wickedness; confidently expecting to preserve thyself by these and other wicked arts and policies. Thou hast said, None seeth me; my counsels are so deeply and cunningly laid, that God himself can neither discover nor prevent the execution of them. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge in state policy, and the arts mentioned above and below, hath perverted thee; hath misled thee into the way of transgression and perdition. Thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me; which was said Isaiah 47:8, and is here repeated, to note their intolerable arrogancy and self-confidence.

Isaiah 47:10

10 For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverteda thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me.
