Isaiah 22:16-23 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

16. 'What right do you have here, And whom do you have here, That you have hewn a tomb for yourself here, You who hew a tomb on the height, You who carve a resting place for yourself in the rock?

17. 'Behold, the Lord is about to hurl you headlong, O man. And He is about to grasp you firmly

18. And roll you tightly like a ball, To be cast into a vast country; There you will die And there your splendid chariots will be, You shame of your master's house.'

19. "I will depose you from your office, And I will pull you down from your station.

20. "Then it will come about in that day, That I will summon My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,

21. And I will clothe him with your tunic And tie your sash securely about him. I will entrust him with your authority, And he will become a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

22. "Then I will set the key of the house of David on his shoulder, When he opens no one will shut, When he shuts no one will open.

23. "I will drive him like a peg in a firm place, And he will become a throne of glory to his father's house.
