Isaiah 22:18
Compare all
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? 
17 Indeed, the Lord will throw you away violently,
O mighty man,
aAnd will surely seize you. 
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. 
19 So I will drive you out of your office,
And from your position1 he will pull you down. 
20 ‘Then it shall be in that day,
That I will call My servant aEliakim the son of Hilkiah; 
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.
22 The key of the house of David
I will lay on his ashoulder;
So he shall bopen, and no one shall shut;
And he shall shut, and no one shall open. 
23 I will fasten him as aa peg in a secure place,
And he will become a glorious throne to his father’s house.  
24 ‘They will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the posterity, all vessels of small quantity, from the cups to all the pitchers.

Isaiah 22:18

violently turn and toss—literally, "whirling He will whirl thee," that is, He will, without intermission, whirl thee [MAURER]. "He will whirl thee round and round, and (then) cast thee away," as a stone in a sling is first whirled round repeatedly, before the string is let go [LOWTH].

large country—perhaps Assyria.

chariots . . . shall be the shame of thy lord's house—rather, "thy splendid chariots shall be there, O thou disgrace of thy lord's house" [NOYES]; "chariots of thy glory" mean "thy magnificent chariots." It is not meant that he would have these in a distant land, as he had in Jerusalem, but that he would be borne thither in ignominy instead of in his magnificent chariots. The Jews say that he was tied to the tails of horses by the enemy, to whom he had designed to betray Jerusalem, as they thought he was mocking them; and so he died.
