2you town so full of commotion, you city of tumult and revelry? Your slain were not killed by the sword, nor did they die in battle.H4392H8663H1993H5892H5947H7151H2491H2491H2719H4191H4421
3All your leaders have fled together; they have been captured without using the bow. All you who were caught were taken prisoner together, having fled while the enemy was still far away.H7101H5074H3162H631H7198H4672H631H3162H1272H7350
4Therefore I said, "Turn away from me; let me weep bitterly. Do not try to console me over the destruction of my people."H559H8159H1065H4843H213H5162H7701H1323H5971
5The Lord, the LORD Almighty, has a day of tumult and trampling and terror in the Valley of Vision, a day of battering down walls and of crying out to the mountains.H3117H4103H4001H3998H136H3069H6635H1516H2384H6979H7023H7771H2022

7Your choicest valleys are full of chariots, and horsemen are posted at the city gates.H4005H6010H4390H7393H6571H7896H7896H8179
8The Lord stripped away the defenses of Judah, and you looked in that day to the weapons in the Palace of the Forest.H1540H4539H3063H5027H3117H5402H1004H3293
9You saw that the City of David had many breaches in its defenses; you stored up water in the Lower Pool.H7200H1233H5892H1732H7231H6908H4325H8481H1295
10You counted the buildings in Jerusalem and tore down houses to strengthen the wall.H5608H1004H3389H1004H5422H1219H2346
11You built a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the Old Pool, but you did not look to the One who made it, or have regard for the One who planned it long ago.H6213H4724H2346H4325H3465H1295H5027H6213H7200H3335H7350
12The Lord, the LORD Almighty, called you on that day to weep and to wail, to tear out your hair and put on sackcloth.H3117H136H3069H6635H7121H1065H4553H7144H2296H8242
13But see, there is joy and revelry, slaughtering of cattle and killing of sheep, eating of meat and drinking of wine! "Let us eat and drink," you say, "for tomorrow we die!"H8342H8057H2026H1241H7819H6629H398H1320H8354H3196H398H8354H4279H4191
14The LORD Almighty has revealed this in my hearing: "Till your dying day this sin will not be atoned for," says the Lord, the LORD Almighty.H1540H241H3068H6635H5771H3722H4191H559H136H3069H6635
15This is what the Lord, the LORD Almighty, says: "Go, say to this steward, to Shebna, who is in charge of the palace:H559H136H3069H6635H3212H935H5532H7644H1004
16What are you doing here and who gave you permission to cut out a grave for yourself here, hewing your grave on the height and chiseling your resting place in the rock?H2672H6913H6311H2672H6913H4791H2710H4908H5553
17"Beware, the LORD is about to take firm hold of you and hurl you away, you mighty man.H3068H2904H1397H2925H5844H5844
18He will roll you up tightly like a ball and throw you into a large country. There you will die and there the chariots you were so proud of will become a disgrace to your master's house.H6801H6801H6802H1754H7342H3027H776H4191H4818H3519H7036H113H1004
19I will depose you from your office, and you will be ousted from your position.H1920H4673H4612H2040
20"In that day I will summon my servant, Eliakim son of Hilkiah.H3117H7121H5650H471H1121H2518
21I will clothe him with your robe and fasten your sash around him and hand your authority over to him. He will be a father to those who live in Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.H3847H3801H2388H73H5414H4475H3027H1H3427H3389H1004H3063
22I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David; what he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.H4668H1004H1732H5414H7926H6605H5462H5462H6605
23I will drive him like a peg into a firm place; he will become a seat of honor for the house of his father.H8628H3489H539H4725H3519H3678H1H1004
24All the glory of his family will hang on him: its offspring and offshoots—all its lesser vessels, from the bowls to all the jars.H8518H3519H1H1004H6631H6849H3627H6996H3627H101H3627H5035
25"In that day," declares the LORD Almighty, "the peg driven into the firm place will give way; it will be sheared off and will fall, and the load hanging on it will be cut down." The LORD has spoken.H3117H5002H3068H6635H3489H8628H539H4725H4185H1438H5307H4853H3772H3068H1696
