Isaiah 22:21-25

Christian Standard Bible

²¹ I will clothe him with your robe and tie your sash around him. I will hand your authority over to him, and he will be like a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.^{(A) 22} I will place the key^(B) of the house of David on his shoulder; what he opens, no one can close; what he closes, no one can open.^{(C) 23} I will drive him, like a peg, into a firm place. He will be a throne of honor for his father’s family. ²⁴ They will hang on him all the glory of his father’s family: the descendants and the offshoots—all the small vessels, from bowls to every kind of jar. ²⁵ On that day”—the declaration of the Lord of Armies—“the peg that was driven into a firm place will give way, be cut off, and fall, and the load on it will be destroyed.” Indeed, the Lord has spoken.
