Isaiah 22
22
An Oracle Concerning Jerusalem
1The #See ch. 13:1 oracle concerning #ver. 5; Jer. 21:13; [Joel 3:12, 14]the valley of vision.
What do you mean that you have gone up,
all of you, to the housetops,
2you who are full of shoutings,
tumultuous city, #ch. 32:13 exultant town?
Your slain are #Lam. 4:9not slain with the sword
or dead in battle.
3 # [ch. 1:10] 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.
4Therefore I said:
“Look away from me;
#
Jer. 9:1; Mic. 1:8 let me weep bitter tears;
do not labor to comfort me
concerning the destruction of the daughter of my people.”
5 # ch. 2:12-17 For the Lord God of hosts has #[ch. 37:3] a day
of tumult and #ch. 10:6; 18:2 trampling and #Mic. 7:4 confusion
in #[See ver. 1 above]the valley of vision,
a battering down of walls
and a shouting to the mountains.
6And #See ch. 11:11 Elam bore the quiver
with chariots and horsemen,
and #2 Kgs. 16:9Kir uncovered the shield.
7Your choicest valleys were full of chariots,
and the horsemen took their stand at the gates.
8He has taken away #ch. 30:1 the covering of Judah.
In that day you looked to #1 Kgs. 10:17the weapons of the House of the Forest, 9and you saw that #ver. 5, 10; [2 Chr. 32:5] the breaches of the city of David were many. #[Neh. 3:16]You collected the waters of the lower pool, 10and you counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall. 11#[See ver. 9 above] You made a reservoir between #[2 Kgs. 25:4] the two walls for the water of #[ch. 7:3; 2 Kgs. 20:20; 2 Chr. 32:3, 4] the old pool. But #[ch. 5:12]you did not look to him who did it, or see him who planned it long ago.
12In that day #[Joel 2:17] the Lord God of hosts
called for weeping and mourning,
for #See ch. 3:24 baldness and #See 2 Sam. 3:31wearing sackcloth;
13and behold, joy and gladness,
killing oxen and slaughtering sheep,
eating flesh and drinking wine.
# ch. 56:12; Cited 1 Cor. 15:32 “Let us eat and drink,
for tomorrow we die.”
14The Lord of hosts #ch. 5:9 has revealed himself in my ears:
“Surely #[ch. 27:9; 1 Sam. 3:14] this iniquity will not be atoned for you #[ver. 13]until you die,”
says the Lord God of hosts.
15Thus says the Lord God of hosts, “Come, go to this steward, to #ch. 36:3, 11, 22; 37:2; 2 Kgs. 18:18, 26, 37; 19:2Shebna, who is over the household, and say to him: 16What have you to do here, and whom have you here, #2 Chr. 16:14 that you have cut out here a tomb for yourself, you #Matt. 27:60who cut out a tomb on the height and carve a dwelling for yourself in the rock? 17Behold, the Lord will hurl you away violently, O you strong man. #[Dan. 3:21]He will seize firm hold on you 18and whirl you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a wide land. There you shall die, and there shall be #[ch. 36:9]your glorious chariots, you shame of your master’s house. 19#[ver. 25]I will thrust you from your office, and you will be pulled down from your station. 20In that day I will call my servant #ch. 36:3; 37:2; 2 Kgs. 18:18, 26, 37; 19:2Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, 21and #[See ver. 20 above] 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 #Gen. 45:8a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. 22And I will place #ch. 9:6 on his shoulder #Rev. 3:7 the key of the house of David. #[Job 12:14]He shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open. 23And I will fasten him #[ch. 33:20; 54:2; Eccles. 12:11] like a peg in a secure place, and he will become #[Rev. 3:21]a throne of honor to his father’s house. 24And 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. 25In that day, declares the Lord of hosts, #[See ver. 23 above]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.”
