Isaiah 22:21-23
New Catholic Bible
21 I will clothe him with your robe
and place your sash around his waist,
and I will bestow upon him your authority.
He will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem
and to the house of Judah.
22 I will place on his shoulder
the key of the house of David.
When he opens,
no one will close;
when he closes,
no one will open.[a]
23 I will fasten him like a peg in a secure place,
and he will become a throne of honor for his family.
