Isaias 22:15-23 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

15. Thus saith the Lord God of hosts: Go, get thee in to him that dwelleth in the tabernacle, to Sobna who is over the temple: and thou shalt say to him:

16. What dost thou here, or as if thou wert somebody here? for thou hast hewed thee out a sepulchre here, thou hast hewed out a monument carefully in a high place, a dwelling for thyself in a rock.

17. Behold the Lord will cause thee to be carried away, as a cock is carried away, and he will lift thee up as a garment.

18. He will crown thee with a crown of tribulation, he will toss thee like a ball into a large and spacious country: there shalt thou die, and there shall the chariot of thy glory be, the shame of the house of thy Lord.

19. And I will drive thee out From thy station, and depose thee from thy ministry.

20. And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliacim the son of Helcias,

21. And I will clothe him with thy robe, and will strengthen him with thy girdle, and will give thy power into his hand: and he shall be as a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Juda.

22. And I will lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder: and he shall open, and none shall shut: and he shall shut, and none shall open.

23. And I will fasten him as a peg in a sure place, and he shall be for a throne of glory to the house of his father.
