19. I will force you out of your important job here.You will be thrown down from your important place.’
20. “At that time I will call for my servant Eliakim son of Hilkiah.
21. I will take your robe and put it on him. I will give him your belt. I will give him the important job you have. He will be like a father to the people of Jerusalem and the family of Judah.
22. I will put the key to the house of David around his neck. If he opens a door, no one will be able to close it. If he closes a door, no one will be able to open it.
23. He will be like an honored chair in his father’s house. I will make him strong like a peg that is hammered into a strong board.
24. All the honored and important things of his family will depend on him. All the adults and little children will depend on him. They will be like bowls and jars hanging on him.
25. “At that time,” says the Lord of heaven’s armies, “the peg hammered into the strong board will weaken. It will break and fall. And everything hanging on it will be destroyed.” The Lord says this.
