19 The Lord will remove you from office and bring you down from your high position.”

He will be like a father to the people of Jerusalem and Judah. 22 (A)I will give him complete authority under the king, the descendant of David. He will have the keys of office; what he opens, no one will shut, and what he shuts, no one will open. 23 I will fasten him firmly in place like a peg, and he will be a source of honor to his whole family.
