From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Soothsayer       one who pretends to prognosticate future events. Baalam is so       called (Josh. 13:22; Heb. kosem, a "diviner," as rendered 1 Sam.       6:2; rendered "prudent," Isa. 3:2). In Isa. 2:6 and Micah 5:12       (Heb. yonenim, i.e., "diviners of the clouds") the word is used       of the Chaldean diviners who studied the clouds. In Dan. 2:27;       5:7 the word is the rendering of the Chaldee gazrin, i.e.,       "deciders" or "determiners", here applied to Chaldean       astrologers, "who, by casting nativities from the place of the       stars at one's birth, and by various arts of computing and       divining, foretold the fortunes and destinies of individuals.",       Gesenius, Lex. Heb. (See {SORCERER}.)

So far the decision to remain outside the European    single market structure does not appear to have harmed Swiss    interests. In December 1994, the Swiss began bilateral negotiations    with the EU aimed at establishing closer ties in areas of mutual    interest and progressing toward the free circulation of persons,    goods, capital, and services between the two parties. The Swiss    emerged from a three-year recession in mid-1993 and posted 1.8% GDP    growth in 1994. The Swiss central bank's tight monetary policies    brought inflation down from about 4% in 1992 to just under 1% in 1994.    Unemployment has fallen slightly from 5.1% in 1993 to 4.7% in 1994.    Swiss per capita output, living standards, education, and health care    remain unsurpassed in Europe.
