Isaiah 22:17-25 ▼

17 Behold, YHWH is casting you up and down, || A casting up and down, O mighty one,

18 And your coverer covering, wrapping around, || Wraps you around, O babbler, || On a land of broad sides—there you die, || And there the chariots of your glory [are] the shame of the house of your lord.

19 And I have thrust you from your station, || And he throws you down from your office.

20 And it has come to pass in that day, || That I have called to My servant, || To Eliakim son of Hilkiah.

21 And I have clothed him with your coat, || And I strengthen him with your girdle, || And I give your garment into his hand, || And he has been for a father to the inhabitant of Jerusalem, || And to the house of Judah.

22 And I have placed the key || Of the house of David on his shoulder, || And he has opened, and none is shutting, || And has shut, and none is opening.

23 And I have fixed him [as] a nail in a steadfast place, || And he has been for a throne of glory || To the house of his father.

24 And they have hanged on him || All the glory of the house of his father, || The offspring and the issue, || All vessels of small quality, || From vessels of basins to all vessels of flagons.

25 In that day—a declaration of YHWH of Hosts, || The nail that is fixed is moved || In a steadfast place, || Indeed, it has been cut down, and has fallen, || And the burden that [is] on it has been cut off, || For YHWH has spoken!”
