# Isaiah 22
|

|
|
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
|
|||
|
|
1. The oracle concerning the valley of vision. What do you mean that you have gone up, all of you, to the housetops,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
|||
|
|
2. you who are full of shoutings, tumultuous city, exultant town? Your slain are not slain with the sword or dead in battle.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.”
|
|||
|
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
|||
|
|
6. And Elam bore the quiver with chariots and horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
|
|||
|
|
7. Your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen took their stand at the gates.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
|||
|
|
8. He has taken away the covering of Judah. In that day you looked to the weapons of the House of the Forest,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
|||
|
|
9. and you saw that the breaches of the city of David were many. You collected the waters of the lower pool,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
|||
|
|
10. and you counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
|||
|
|
12. In that day the Lord GOD of hosts called for weeping and mourning, for baldness and wearing sackcloth;
|
|||
|
|
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.”
|
|||
|
|
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
|
|||
|
|
15. Thus says the Lord GOD of hosts, “Come, go to this steward, to Shebna, who is over the household, and say to him:
|
|||
|
|
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
|
|||
|
|
17. Behold, the LORD will hurl you away violently, O you strong man. He will seize firm hold on you
|
|||
|
|
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
|
|||
|
|
19. I will thrust you from your office, and you will be pulled down from your station.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="20" name="20"></a>
|
|||
|
|
20. In that day I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="21" name="21"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="22" name="22"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="23" name="23"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="24" name="24"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="25" name="25"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.”
