Isaiah, Chapter 22

1 Thea Or burden oforacle concerning the valley of vision.
What is the matter with you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops?
2 You who were full of noise,
You boisterous town, you exultant city;
Your slain were not slain with the sword,
Norb Lit dead in battledid they die in battle.
3 All your rulers have fled together,
And have been capturedc Lit from a bowwithout the bow;
All of you who were found were taken captive together,
d So with ancient versions; Heb They fled far awayThough they had fled far away.
4 Therefore I say, “Turn your eyes away from me,
Let me weep bitterly,
Do note Lit insisttry to comfort me concerning the destruction of the daughter of my people.”
5 For the Lordf Heb YHWH, usually rendered LordGOD of hosts has a day of panic, subjugation and confusion
In the valley of vision,
A breaking down of walls
And a cryingg Or againstto the mountain.
6 Elam took up the quiver
With the chariots,h Lit maninfantry and horsemen;
And Kir uncovered the shield.
7 Then your choicest valleys were full of chariots,
And the horsemen took up fixed positions at the gate.
8 And He removed thei Lit screen, coveringdefense of Judah.
In that day youj Or looked to, considereddepended on the weapons of the house of the forest,
9 And you saw that the breaches
In the wall of the city of David were many;
And you collected the waters of the lower pool.
10 Then you counted the houses of Jerusalem
And tore down houses to fortify the wall.
11 And you made a reservoir between the two walls
For the waters of the old pool.
But you did notk Or look to, considerdepend on Him who made it,
Nor did youl Lit see...Himtake into consideration Him who planned it long ago.
12 Therefore in that day the Lordm Heb YHWH, usually rendered LordGOD of hosts called you to weeping, to wailing,
To shaving the head and to wearing sackcloth.
13 Instead, there is gaiety and gladness,
Killing of cattle and slaughtering of sheep,
Eating of meat and drinking of wine:
“Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we may die.”
14 But the LORD of hosts revealed Himselfn Lit in my earsto me,
“Surely this iniquity shall not beo Lit atoned forforgiven you
Until you die,” says the Lordp Heb YHWH, usually rendered LordGOD of hosts.
15 Thus says the Lordq Heb YHWH, usually rendered LordGOD of hosts,
“Come, go to this steward,
To Shebna, who is in charge of the royal household,
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 forr Lit himselfyourself 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,
Ands So with many ancient versions; Heb HeI 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 yourt Lit ruleauthority,
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.
24 So they will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, offspring andu Or perhaps, leafissue, all the least of vessels, from bowls to all the jars. 25 In that day,” declares the LORD of hosts, “the peg driven in a firm place will give way; it will even break off and fall, and the load hanging on it will be cut off, for the LORD has spoken.”
