Isaiah 22:15-25

15ThusH3541 saith the LordH136, Jehovah of hostsH6635, GoH935, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto ShebnaH7644, who is over the houseH1004, and sayH559, 16What doest thou hereH6311? and whom hast thou hereH6311, that thou hast hewed thee out hereH6311 a sepulchre? hewing him out a sepulchre on highH4791, graving a habitation for himself in the rockH5553! 17Behold, Jehovah, like a strong manH1397, will hurl thee away violently; yea, he will wrap thee up closely. 18He will surely wind thee round and round, and toss thee like a ball into a large country; there shalt thou dieH4191, and there shall be the chariotsH4818 of thy gloryH3519, thou shameH7036 of thy lord’sH113 houseH1004. 19And I will thrust thee from thine office; and from thy station shalt thou be pulled downH2040. 20And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that I will callH7121 my servantH5650 EliakimH471 the sonH1121 of HilkiahH2518: 21and I will clotheH3847 him with thy robe, and strengthenH2388 him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his handH3027; and he shall beH1961 a fatherH1 to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063. 22And the keyH4668 of the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 will I lay upon his shoulderH7926; and he shall openH6605, and none shall shutH5462; and he shall shutH5462, and none shall openH6605. 23And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure placeH4725; and he shall beH1961 for a throneH3678 of gloryH3519 to his father’sH1 houseH1004. 24And they shall hangH8518 upon him all the gloryH3519 of his father’sH1 houseH1004, the offspring and the issue, every smallH6996 vesselH3627, from the cups even to all the flagons. 25In that dayH3117, saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, shall the nail that was fastened in a sure placeH4725 give way; and it shall be hewn downH5307, and fallH5307; and the burdenH4853 that was upon it shall be cutH3772 off; for Jehovah hath spokenH1696 it.
