Isaiah 22:1 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 This message came to me concerning Jerusalem-- the Valley of Vision: What is happening? Why is everyone running to the rooftops?
2 The whole city is in a terrible uproar. What do I see in this reveling city? Bodies are lying everywhere, killed not in battle but by famine and disease.
3 All your leaders have fled. They surrendered without resistance. The people tried to slip away, but they were captured, too.
4 That's why I said, "Leave me alone to weep; do not try to comfort me. Let me cry for my people as I watch them being destroyed."
5 Oh, what a day of crushing defeat! What a day of confusion and terror brought by the Lord, the LORD of Heaven's Armies, upon the Valley of Vision! The walls of Jerusalem have been broken, and cries of death echo from the mountainsides.
6 Elamites are the archers, with their chariots and charioteers. The men of Kir hold up the shields.
7 Chariots fill your beautiful valleys, and charioteers storm your gates.
8 Judah's defenses have been stripped away. You run to the armory for your weapons.
9 You inspect the breaks in the walls of Jerusalem. You store up water in the lower pool.
10 You survey the houses and tear some down for stone to strengthen the walls.
11 Between the city walls, you build a reservoir for water from the old pool. But you never ask for help from the One who did all this. You never considered the One who planned this long ago.
12 At that time the Lord, the LORD of Heaven's Armies, called you to weep and mourn. He told you to shave your heads in sorrow for your sins and to wear clothes of burlap to show your remorse.
13 But instead, you dance and play; you slaughter cattle and kill sheep. You feast on meat and drink wine. You say, "Let's feast and drink, for tomorrow we die!"
14 The LORD of Heaven's Armies has revealed this to me: "Till the day you die, you will never be forgiven for this sin." That is the judgment of the Lord, the LORD of Heaven's Armies.
15 This is what the Lord, the LORD of Heaven's Armies, said to me: "Confront Shebna, the palace administrator, and give him this message:
16 "Who do you think you are, and what are you doing here, building a beautiful tomb for yourself-- a monument high up in the rock?
17 For the LORD is about to hurl you away, mighty man. He is going to grab you,
18 crumple you into a ball, and toss you away into a distant, barren land. There you will die, and your glorious chariots will be broken and useless. You are a disgrace to your master!
19 "Yes, I will drive you out of office," says the LORD. "I will pull you down from your high position.
20 And then I will call my servant Eliakim son of Hilkiah to replace you.
21 I will dress him in your royal robes and will give him your title and your authority. And he will be a father to the people of Jerusalem and Judah.
22 I will give him the key to the house of David-- the highest position in the royal court. When he opens doors, no one will be able to close them; when he closes doors, no one will be able to open them.
23 He will bring honor to his family name, for I will drive him firmly in place like a nail in the wall.
24 They will give him great responsibility, and he will bring honor to even the lowliest members of his family. "
25 But the LORD of Heaven's Armies also says: "The time will come when I will pull out the nail that seemed so firm. It will come out and fall to the ground. Everything it supports will fall with it. I, the LORD, have spoken!"
1 The burden H4853 of the valley H1516 of vision H2384 . What H4100 IPRO aileth thee now H645 CONJ , that H3588 CONJ thou art wholly H3605 gone up H5927 to the housetops H1406 ?
2 Thou that art full H4392 of stirs H8663 CFP , a tumultuous H1993 city H5892 GFS , a joyous H5947 city H7151 NFS : thy slain H2491 men are not H3808 NADV slain H2491 with the sword H2719 GFS , nor H3808 W-NADV dead H4191 in battle H4421 .
3 All H3605 NMS thy rulers H7101 are fled H5074 together H3162 ADV , they are bound H631 by the archers H7198 : all H3605 NMS that are found H4672 in thee are bound H631 together H3162 ADV-3MS , which have fled H1272 from far H7350 M-AMS .
4 Therefore H5921 PREP said H559 VQQ1MS I , Look away H8159 from H4480 PREP-1MS me ; I will weep H1065 bitterly H4843 , labor H213 not H408 NPAR to comfort H5162 me , because H5921 PREP of the spoiling H7701 of the daughter H1323 CFS of my people H5971 .
5 For H3588 CONJ it is a day H3117 NMS of trouble H4103 , and of treading down H4001 , and of perplexity H3998 by the Lord H136 GOD H3069 of hosts H6635 in the valley H1516 of vision H2384 , breaking down H6979 the walls H7023 , and of crying H7771 to H413 PREP the mountains H2022 .
6 And Elam H5867 bore H5375 VQQ3MS the quiver H827 NFS with chariots H7393 of men H120 NMS and horsemen H6571 , and Kir H7024 uncovered H6168 the shield H4043 .
7 And it shall come to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , that thy choicest H4055 valleys H6010 shall be full H4390 VQQ3MP of chariots H7393 , and the horsemen H6571 shall set themselves in array H7896 at the gate H8179 .
8 And he discovered H1540 the covering H4539 of Judah H3063 , and thou didst look H5027 in that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS to H413 PREP the armor H5402 of the house H1004 CMS of the forest H3293 .
9 Ye have seen H7200 also the breaches H1233 of the city H5892 GFS of David H1732 MMS , that H3588 CONJ they are many H7231 : and ye gathered together H6908 the waters H4325 of the lower H8481 pool H1295 .
10 And ye have numbered H5608 the houses H1004 of Jerusalem H3389 , and the houses H1004 have ye broken down H5422 to fortify H1219 the wall H2346 .
11 Ye made H6213 also a ditch H4724 between H996 PREP the two walls H2346 for the water H4325 of the old H3465 pool H1295 : but ye have not H3808 W-NPAR looked H5027 unto H413 PREP the maker H6213 thereof , neither H3808 W-NPAR had respect H7200 unto him that fashioned H3335 it long ago H7350 .
12 And in that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS did the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 of hosts H6635 call H7121 W-VQY3MS to weeping H1065 , and to mourning H4553 , and to baldness H7144 , and to girding H2296 with sackcloth H8242 :
13 And behold H2009 IJEC joy H8342 and gladness H8057 , slaying H2026 oxen H1241 NMS , and killing H7819 sheep H6629 NMS , eating H398 VQFA flesh H1320 NMS , and drinking H8354 wine H3196 : let us eat H398 and drink H8354 ; for H3588 CONJ tomorrow H4279 NMS we shall die H4191 .
14 And it was revealed H1540 in mine ears H241 B-CFD-1MS by the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , Surely H518 PART this H2088 D-PMS iniquity H5771 shall not be purged H3722 from you till H5704 PREP ye die H4191 , saith H559 VQQ3MS the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 of hosts H6635 .
15 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3069 of hosts H6635 , Go H1980 L-PPRO-2MS , get H935 thee unto H413 PREP this H2088 D-PMS treasurer H5532 , even unto H5921 PREP Shebna H7644 , which H834 RPRO is over H5921 PREP the house H1004 , and say ,
16 What H4100 IPRO hast thou here H6311 ? and whom H4310 W-IPRO hast thou here H6311 , that H3588 CONJ thou hast hewed thee out H2672 a sepulcher H6913 NMS here H6311 ADV , as he that heweth him out H2672 a sepulcher H6913 on high H4791 , and that graveth H2710 a habitation H4908 for himself in a rock H5553 ?
17 Behold H2009 IJEC , the LORD H3068 EDS will carry thee away H2904 with a mighty H1397 NMS captivity H2925 , and will surely cover H5844 thee .
18 He will surely violently turn H6801 and toss H6802 thee like a ball H1754 into H413 PREP a large H7342 country H776 GFS : there H8033 ADV-3FS shalt thou die H4191 , and there H8033 the chariots H4818 of thy glory H3519 shall be the shame H7036 of thy lord H113 \'s house H1004 CMS .
19 And I will drive H1920 thee from thy station H4673 , and from thy state H4612 shall he pull thee down H2040 .
20 And it shall come to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS in that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS , that I will call H7121 my servant H5650 L-CMS-1MS Eliakim H471 the son H1121 of Hilkiah H2518 :
21 And I will clothe H3847 him with thy robe H3801 , and strengthen H2388 him with thy girdle H73 , and I will commit H5414 VQY1MS thy government H4475 into his hand H3027 B-CFS-3MS : and he shall be H1961 W-VQQ3MS a father H1 to the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 , and to the house H1004 of Judah H3063 .
22 And the key H4668 of the house H1004 CMS of David H1732 MMS will I lay H5414 upon H5921 PREP his shoulder H7926 ; so he shall open H6605 , and none H369 W-NPAR shall shut H5462 ; and he shall shut H5462 , and none H369 W-NPAR shall open H6605 .
23 And I will fasten H8628 him as a nail H3489 in a sure H539 place H4725 ; and he shall be H1961 W-VQQ3MS for a glorious H3519 throne H3678 to his father H1 \'s house H1004 .
24 And they shall hang H8518 upon H5921 PREP-3MS him all H3605 NMS the glory H3519 of his father H1 CMS-3MS \'s house H1004 CMS , the offspring H6631 and the issue H6849 , all H3605 NMS vessels H3627 of small quantity H6996 , from the vessels H3627 of cups H101 , even to H5704 W-PREP all H3605 NMS the vessels H3627 of flagons H5035 .
25 In that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , shall the nail H3489 that is fastened H8628 in the sure H539 place H4725 be removed H4185 , and be cut down H1438 , and fall H5307 ; and the burden H4853 that H834 RPRO was upon H5921 PREP-3FS it shall be cut off H3772 : for H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS hath spoken H1696 it .
