Isaiah 22 (kjv)

22

The burdenH4853 of the valleyH1516 of visionH2384. What aileth thee nowH645, that thou art wholly gone upH5927 to the housetopsH1406?2Thou that art fullH4392 of stirsH8663, a tumultuousH1993 cityH5892, a joyousH5947 cityH7151: thy slainH2491 men are not slainH2491 with the swordH2719, nor deadH4191 in battleH4421.3All thy rulersH7101 are fledH5074 togetherH3162, they are boundH631 by the archersH7198: all that are foundH4672 in thee are boundH631 togetherH3162, which have fledH1272 from farH7350.4Therefore saidH559 I, Look awayH8159 from me; I will weepH1065 bitterlyH4843, labourH213 not to comfortH5162 me, because of the spoilingH7701 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971.5For it is a dayH3117 of troubleH4103, and of treading downH4001, and of perplexityH3998 by the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635 in the valleyH1516 of visionH2384, breakingH6979 down the wallsH7023, and of cryingH7771 to the mountainsH2022.6And ElamH5867 bareH5375 the quiverH827 with chariotsH7393 of menH120 and horsemenH6571, and KirH7024 uncoveredH6168 the shieldH4043.7And it shall come to pass, that thy choicestH4005 valleysH6010 shall be fullH4390 of chariotsH7393, and the horsemenH6571 shall setH7896 themselves in arrayH7896 at the gateH8179.

8And he discoveredH1540 the coveringH4539 of JudahH3063, and thou didst lookH5027 in that dayH3117 to the armourH5402 of the houseH1004 of the forestH3293.9Ye have seenH7200 also the breachesH1233 of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, that they are manyH7231: and ye gathered togetherH6908 the watersH4325 of the lowerH8481 poolH1295.10And ye have numberedH5608 the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and the housesH1004 have ye broken downH5422 to fortifyH1219 the wallH2346.11Ye madeH6213 also a ditchH4724 between the two wallsH2346 for the waterH4325 of the oldH3465 poolH1295: but ye have not lookedH5027 unto the makerH6213 thereof, neither had respectH7200 unto him that fashionedH3335 it long agoH7350.12And in that dayH3117 did the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635 callH7121 to weepingH1065, and to mourningH4553, and to baldnessH7144, and to girdingH2296 with sackclothH8242:13And behold joyH8342 and gladnessH8057, slayingH2026 oxenH1241, and killingH7819 sheepH6629, eatingH398 fleshH1320, and drinkingH8354 wineH3196: let us eatH398 and drinkH8354; for to morrowH4279 we shall dieH4191.14And it was revealedH1540 in mine earsH241 by the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, Surely this iniquityH5771 shall not be purgedH3722 from you till ye dieH4191, saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635.

15Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635, GoH3212, getH935 thee unto this treasurerH5532, even unto ShebnaH7644, which is over the houseH1004, and say,16What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee outH2672 a sepulchreH6913 hereH6311, as he that heweth him outH2672 a sepulchreH6913 on highH4791, and that gravethH2710 an habitationH4908 for himself in a rockH5553?17Behold, the LORDH3068 will carry thee awayH2904 with a mightyH1397 captivityH2925, and will surelyH5844 coverH5844 thee.18He will surelyH6801 violently turnH6801 and tossH6802 thee like a ballH1754 into a largeH7342 H3027 countryH776: there shalt thou dieH4191, and there the chariotsH4818 of thy gloryH3519 shall be the shameH7036 of thy lord'sH113 houseH1004.19And I will driveH1920 thee from thy stationH4673, and from thy stateH4612 shall he pull thee downH2040.

20And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that I will callH7121 my servantH5650 EliakimH471 the sonH1121 of HilkiahH2518:21And I will clotheH3847 him with thy robeH3801, and strengthenH2388 him with thy girdleH73, and I will commitH5414 thy governmentH4475 into his handH3027: and he shall be a fatherH1 to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063.22And the keyH4668 of the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 will I layH5414 upon his shoulderH7926; so he shall openH6605, and none shall shutH5462; and he shall shutH5462, and none shall openH6605.23And I will fastenH8628 him as a nailH3489 in a sureH539 placeH4725; and he shall be for a gloriousH3519 throneH3678 to his father'sH1 houseH1004.24And they shall hangH8518 upon him all the gloryH3519 of his father'sH1 houseH1004, the offspringH6631 and the issueH6849, all vesselsH3627 of smallH6996 quantity, from the vesselsH3627 of cupsH101, even to all the vesselsH3627 of flagonsH5035.25In that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, shall the nailH3489 that is fastenedH8628 in the sureH539 placeH4725 be removedH4185, and be cut downH1438, and fallH5307; and the burdenH4853 that was upon it shall be cut offH3772: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.
