TSNTyndale Study Notes:

44:25 False prophets and fortune-tellers used forbidden forms of divination to try to predict the future. Eventually God would expose them as deluded liars (see 3:2; 9:15; 47:13; Deut 18:10-11).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) omens

(Some words not found in UHB: frustrates omens false_prophets and,diviners makes_fools_of turns_back wise back and,knowledge,their makes_~_foolish )

These are signs that people used to attempt to predict the future.

(Occurrence 0) the empty talkers

(Some words not found in UHB: frustrates omens false_prophets and,diviners makes_fools_of turns_back wise back and,knowledge,their makes_~_foolish )

This refers to people who say things that are meaningless.
