Isaiah 22:19–25
19I will thrust you from your office. You will be pulled down from your station.↗
20It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,↗
21and 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.↗
22I 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.↗
23I will fasten him like a nail in a sure place. He will be for a throne of glory to his father’s house.↗
24They will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the pitchers.↗
25“In that day,” says the LORD of Armies, “the nail that was fastened in a sure place will give way. It will be cut down and fall. The burden that was on it will be cut off, for the LORD has spoken it.”↗
