Isaiah 22:15-22 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

15. Thus says the Lord, the Lord of Hosts, “Go, get yourself to this treasurer, even to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,

16. ‘What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?’ Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiselling a habitation for himself in the rock!”

17. Behold, the Lord will overcome you and hurl you away violently. Yes, he will grasp you firmly.

18. He will surely wind you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a large country. There you will die, and there the chariots of your glory will be, you shame of your lord’s house.

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

20. It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,

21. and I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your belt. I will commit your government into his hand; and he will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.

22. I will lay the key of David’s house on his shoulder. He will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.
