That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;

The verse 25 is found in chapter 44 of Isaiah. Isaiah ridicules idol-making by showing the contradiction of using part of a tree for cooking and another part to make a god. The craftsman ends up worshiping what he himself produced. Against this inability, Yahweh presents himself as Creator, Redeemer, and Lord of history who even uses Cyrus to fulfill his purpose.

der die Zeichen der Wahrsager zunichte und die Weissager toll macht; der die Weisen zurückkehrt und ihre Kunst zur Torheit macht,
Que deshago las señales de los adivinos, y enloquezco a los agoreros; que hago tornar atrás los sabios, y desvanezco su sabiduría;
J'anéantis les signes des prophètes de mensonge, Et je proclame insensés les devins; Je fais reculer les sages, Et je tourne leur science en folie.
che annullo i segni de’ bugiardi, e fo impazzar gl’indovini; che fo andare a ritroso i savi, e rendo stolto il loro conoscimento;
Que desfaço os sinais dos inventores de mentiras, e enlouqueço os adivinhos; que faço tornar atrás os sábios, e converto em loucura o conhecimento deles;
我使虛謊的預兆失效, 愚弄占卜的人, 使智慧人退後, 使他的知識變為愚拙;
