Isaiah 22:15-25

15Thus says Lord Yahweh of hosts, Come, go to this steward,To aShebna, who is in charge of the royal household,
16What right do you have here,And whom do you have here,That you have ahewn a tomb for yourself here,You who hew a tomb on the height,You who carve a dwelling place for 1yourself in the cliff?17Behold, Yahweh is about to hurl you headlong, O man.And He is about to grasp you firmly18And He will surely roll you tightly like a ball,To be acast into a vast country;There you will die,And there your glorious chariots will be,You disgrace of your master’s house.’19I will apush you out of your office,And 1I will pull you down from your station.20Then it will be in that day,That I will summon My servant aEliakim the son of Hilkiah,21And I will clothe him with your tunicAnd tie your sash securely about him.I will give your 1authority into his hand,And he will become a afather to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.22Then I will set athe key of the bhouse of David on his shoulder,When he opens no one will shut,When he shuts no one will copen.23I will drive him like a apeg in a firm place,And he will become a bthrone of glory to his father’s house.
24So they will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, offspring and 1issue, all the least of vessels, from bowls to all the jars. 25In that day,” declares Yahweh of hosts, “the apeg driven in a firm place will give way; it will even bbreak off and fall, and the load hanging on it will be cut off, for cYahweh has spoken.”
