Isaiah 22:22-25 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

22. The Lord will put him in charge of the key that belongs to King David's family. No one will be able to unlock what he locks, and no one will be able to lock what he unlocks.

23. The Lord will make him as firm in his position as a tent peg hammered in the ground, and Eliakim will bring honour to his family.

24. His children and relatives will be supported by him, like pans hanging from a peg on the wall.

25. That peg is fastened firmly now, but some day it will be shaken loose and fall down. Then everything that was hanging on it will be destroyed. This is what the Lord All-Powerful has promised.
