Isaiah 22

1 The word of the valley of Zion. What has happened to you, that you now are all going up to the housetops, which help you not?

2 The city is filled with shouting; your slain are not slain with swords, nor are your dead those who have died in battle.

3 All your princes have fled, and your captives are tightly bound, and the mighty men in you have fled far away.

4 Therefore I said, Let me alone, I will weep bitterly; labor not to comfort me for the breach of the daughter of my people.

5 For it is a day of trouble, and of destruction, and of treading down, and there is perplexity sent from the Lord of hosts; they wander in the valley of Zion; they wander from the least to the greatest on the mountains.

6 And the Elamites took their quivers, and there were men mounted on horses, and there was a gathering for battle.

7 And it shall be that your choice valleys shall be filled with chariots, and horsemen shall block up your gates.

8 And they shall uncover the gates of Judah, and they shall look in that day on the choice houses of the city.

9 And they shall uncover the secret places of the houses of the citadel of David; and they saw that they were many, and that one had turned the water of the old pool into the city;

10 and that they had pulled down the houses of Jerusalem, to fortify the wall of the city.

11 And you procured to yourselves water between the two walls within the ancient pool; but you looked not to Him that made it from the beginning, and regarded not Him that created it.

12 And the Lord, the Lord of hosts, called in that day for weeping, and lamentation, and baldness, and for girding with sackcloth;

13 but they engaged in joy and gladness, slaying calves, and killing sheep, so as to eat flesh, and drink wine; saying, Let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we die.

14 And these things are revealed in the ears of the Lord of hosts; for this sin shall not be forgiven you, until you die.

15 Thus says the Lord of hosts, Go into the chamber, to Shebna the treasurer, and say to him, Why are you here?

16 And what have you to do here, that you have hewn yourself a tomb, and made yourself a tomb on high, and have graven for yourself a dwelling in the rock?

17 Behold now, the Lord of hosts casts forth and will utterly destroy such a man, and will take away your robe and your glorious crown,

18 and will cast you into a great and unmeasured land, and there you shall die; and He will bring your fair chariot to shame, and the house of your prince to be trodden down.

19 And you shall be removed from your stewardship, and from your place.

20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah;

21 and I will put on him your robe, and I will grant him your crown with power, and I will give your stewardship into his hands; and he shall be as a father to them that dwell in Jerusalem, and to them that dwell in Judah.

22 And I will give him the glory of David; and he shall rule, and there shall be none to speak against him; and I will give him the key of the house of David upon his shoulder. And he shall open, and there shall be none to shut; and he shall shut, and there shall be none to open.

23 And I will make him a ruler in a sure place, and he shall be for a glorious throne in his father's house.

24 And everyone that is glorious in the house of his father shall trust in him, from the least to the greatest; and they shall depend upon him in that day.

25 Thus says the Lord of hosts, The man that is fastened in the sure place shall be removed and be taken away, and shall fall; and the glory that is upon him shall be utterly destroyed; for the Lord has spoken it.

Isaiah 22

1 The oracle concerning the valley of vision. What do you mean that you have gone up, all of you, to the housetops,

2 you who are full of shoutings, tumultuous city, exultant town? Your slain are not slain with the sword or dead in battle.

3 All your leaders have fled together; without the bow they were captured. All of you who were found were captured, though they had fled far away.

4 Therefore I said: "Look away from me; let me weep bitter tears; do not labor to comfort me concerning the destruction of the daughter of my people."

5 For the Lord GOD of hosts has a day of tumult and trampling and confusion in the valley of vision, a battering down of walls and a shouting to the mountains.

6 And Elam bore the quiver with chariots and horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.

7 Your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen took their stand at the gates.

8 He has taken away the covering of Judah. In that day you looked to the weapons of the House of the Forest,

9 and you saw that the breaches of the city of David were many. You collected the waters of the lower pool,

10 and you counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.

11 You made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you did not look to him who did it, or see him who planned it long ago.

12 In that day the Lord GOD of hosts called for weeping and mourning, for baldness and wearing sackcloth;

13 and behold, joy and gladness, killing oxen and slaughtering sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine. "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die."

14 The LORD of hosts has revealed himself in my ears: "Surely this iniquity will not be atoned for you until you die," says the Lord GOD of hosts.

15 Thus says the Lord GOD of hosts, "Come, go to this steward, to Shebna, who is over the household, and say to him:

16 What have you to do here, and whom have you here, that you have cut out here a tomb for yourself, you who cut out a tomb on the height and carve a dwelling for yourself in the rock?

17 Behold, the LORD will hurl you away violently, O you strong man. He will seize firm hold on you

18 and whirl you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a wide land. There you shall die, and there shall be your glorious chariots, you shame of your master's house.

19 I will thrust you from your office, and you will be pulled down from your station.

20 In that day I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,

21 and I will clothe him with your robe, and will bind your sash on him, and will commit your authority to his hand. And he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

22 And I will place on his shoulder the key of the house of David. He shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.

23 And I will fasten him like a peg in a secure place, and he will become a throne of honor to his father's house.

24 And they will hang on him the whole honor of his father's house, the offspring and issue, every small vessel, from the cups to all the flagons.

25 In that day, declares the LORD of hosts, the peg that was fastened in a secure place will give way, and it will be cut down and fall, and the load that was on it will be cut off, for the LORD has spoken."
