Isaiah 22 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

You who were full ^H4392 of noise ^H8663,

You tumultuous ^H1993 town ^H5892, you jubilant ^H5947 city ^H7151;

Your dead ^H2491 were not killed ^H2491 with the sword ^H2719,

Nor ^H3808 [fn]did they die ^H4191 in battle ^H4421.

All ^H3605 your rulers ^H7101 have fled ^H5074 together ^H3162,

And have been captured ^H631 [fn]without ^H4480 the bow ^H7198;

All ^H3605 of you who were found ^H4672 were taken ^H631 captive ^H631 together ^H3162,

[fn]Though they had fled ^H1272 far ^H7350 away.

Therefore ^H5921 H3651 I say ^H559, “Look ^H8159 away ^H8159 from me,

Let me weep ^H1065 bitterly ^H4843,

Do not [fn]try ^H213 to comfort ^H5162 me concerning ^H5921 the destruction ^H7701 of the daughter ^H1323 of my people ^H5971.”

For the Lord ^H136 [fn]GOD ^H3068 of armies ^H6635 has a day ^H3117 of panic ^H4103, subjugation ^H4001, and confusion ^H3998

In the valley ^H1516 of vision ^H2384,

A breaking ^H6979 down ^H6979 of walls ^H7023

And a crying ^H7771 [fn]to the mountain ^H2022.

Elam ^H5867 picked ^H5375 up ^H5375 the quiver ^H827,

With the chariots ^H7393, [fn]infantry ^H120, and horsemen ^H6571;

And Kir ^H7024 uncovered ^H6168 the shield ^H4043.

Then your choicest ^H4005 valleys ^H6010 were full ^H4390 of chariots ^H7393,

And the horsemen ^H6571 took ^H7896 positions ^H7896 at the gate ^H8179.

And He removed ^H1540 the [fn]defense ^H4539 of Judah ^H3063.

On that day ^H3117 you [fn]depended ^H5027 on the weapons ^H5402 of the house ^H1004 of the forest ^H3293,

And you saw ^H7200 that the breaches ^H1233

In the wall of the city ^H5892 of David ^H1732 were ^H7231 many ^H7231;

And you collected ^H6908 the waters ^H4325 of the lower ^H8481 pool ^H1295.

Then you counted ^H5608 the houses ^H1004 of Jerusalem ^H3389

And tore ^H5422 down ^H5422 houses ^H1004 to fortify ^H1219 the wall ^H2346.

And you made ^H6213 a reservoir ^H4724 between ^H996 the two ^H2346 walls ^H2346

For the waters ^H4325 of the old ^H3465 pool ^H1295.

But you did not [fn]depend ^H5027 on Him who made ^H6213 it,

Nor ^H3808 did you [fn]take ^H7200 into ^H7200 consideration ^H7200 Him who planned ^H3335 it long ^H7350 ago ^H7350.

Therefore on that day ^H3117 the Lord ^H136 [fn]GOD ^H3068 of armies ^H6635 called ^H7121 you to weeping ^H1065, to wailing ^H4553,

To shaving ^H7144 the ^H7144 head ^H7144, and to wearing ^H2296 sackcloth ^H8242.

Instead, there is joy ^H8342 and jubilation ^H8057,

Killing ^H2026 of cattle ^H1241 and slaughtering ^H7819 of sheep ^H6629,

Eating ^H398 of meat ^H1320 and drinking ^H8354 of wine ^H3196:

“Let’s eat ^H398 and drink ^H8354, for tomorrow ^H4279 we may die ^H4191.”

But the LORD ^H3068 of armies ^H6635 revealed ^H1540 Himself [fn]to me:

“Certainly ^H518 this ^H2088 wrongdoing ^H5771 will not be [fn]forgiven ^H3722 you

Until ^H5704 you die ^H4191,” says ^H559 the Lord ^H136 [fn]GOD ^H3068 of armies ^H6635.

This ^H3541 is ^H3541 what ^H3541 the Lord ^H136 [fn]GOD ^H3068 of armies ^H6635 says ^H559:

“Come ^H1980, go ^H935 to this ^H2088 steward ^H5532,

To Shebna ^H7644 who ^H834 is in ^H5921 charge ^H5921 of ^H5921 the royal household ^H1004,

‘What ^H4100 right do you have here ^H6311,

And whom ^H4310 do you have here ^H6311,

That you have cut ^H2672 out ^H2672 a tomb ^H6913 for yourself here ^H6311,

You who cut ^H2672 out ^H2672 a tomb ^H6913 on the height ^H4791,

You who carve ^H2710 a resting ^H4908 place ^H4908 for [fn]yourself in the rock ^H5553?

‘Behold ^H2009, the LORD ^H3068 is about to hurl ^H2904 you violently ^H2925, you strong ^H1397 man ^H1397.

And He is about to grasp ^H5844 you firmly ^H5844

And wrap ^H6801 you up ^H6801 tightly ^H6801 like a ball ^H1754,

To be driven into a vast ^H7342 country ^H776;

There ^H8033 you will die ^H4191,

And there ^H8033 your splendid ^H3519 chariots ^H4818 will be,

You shame ^H7036 of your master’s ^H113 house ^H1004!’

“I will depose ^H1920 you from your office ^H4673,

And [fn]I will pull ^H2040 you down ^H2040 from your position ^H4612.

“Then it will come ^H1961 about ^H1961 on that day ^H3117,

That I will summon ^H7121 My servant ^H5650 Eliakim ^H471 the son ^H1121 of Hilkiah ^H2518,

And I will clothe ^H3847 him with your tunic ^H3801

And tie ^H2388 your sash ^H73 securely ^H2388 around him.

I will hand ^H5414 H3027 your [fn]authority ^H4475 over ^H5414 to him,

And he will become ^H1961 a father ^H1 to the inhabitants ^H3427 of Jerusalem ^H3389 and to the house ^H1004 of Judah ^H3063.

“Then I will put ^H5414 the key ^H4668 of the house ^H1004 of David ^H1732 on his shoulder ^H7926;

When he opens ^H6605, no ^H369 one ^H369 will shut ^H5462,

When he shuts ^H5462, no ^H369 one ^H369 will open ^H6605.

“I will drive ^H8628 him like a peg ^H3489 in a firm ^H539 place ^H4725,

And he will become ^H1961 a throne ^H3678 of glory ^H3519 to his father’s ^H1 house ^H1004.

“So they will hang ^H8518 on him all ^H3605 the glory ^H3519 of his father’s ^H1 house ^H1004, the offspring ^H6631 and the [fn]descendants ^H6849, all ^H3605 the least ^H6996 of vessels ^H3627, from bowls ^H3627 H101 to all ^H3605 the jars ^H3627 H5035.
