The Judgment on Shebna
15 Thus says the Lord God of hosts:
“Go, proceed to this steward,
To aShebna, who is over the house, and say:
“Go, proceed to this steward,
To aShebna, who is over the house, and say:
16 ‘What have you here, and whom have you here,
That you have hewn a sepulcher here,
As he awho hews himself a sepulcher on high,
Who carves a tomb for himself in a rock?
That you have hewn a sepulcher here,
As he awho hews himself a sepulcher on high,
Who carves a tomb for himself in a rock?
18 He will surely turn violently and toss you like a ball
Into a large country;
There you shall die, and there ayour glorious chariots
Shall be the shame of your master’s house.
Into a large country;
There you shall die, and there ayour glorious chariots
Shall be the shame of your master’s house.
21 I will clothe him with your robe
And strengthen him with your belt;
I will commit your responsibility into his hand.
He shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem
And to the house of Judah.
And strengthen him with your belt;
I will commit your responsibility into his hand.
He shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem
And to the house of Judah.
