Isaiah 22:14-19 Modern English Version (MEV)

14. It was revealed in my hearing by the Lord of Hosts: Surely this iniquity shall not be forgiven you until you die, says the Lord God of Hosts.

15. Thus says the Lord God of Hosts: Come, go to this treasurer,even to Shebna, who is over the royal household, and say:

16. What right do you have here? And whom do you have herethat you have dug out for yourself a tomb here,as he who hews out for himself a tomb on high,and who cuts a habitation for himself in a rock?

17. Indeed, the Lord is about to hurl you headlong, O man;He is about to seize you firmly.

18. He will surely violently turnand toss you like a ball into a large country;there you shall die,and there the chariots of your glory shall bethe shame of your lord’s house.

19. I will drive you from your officeand pull you down from your station.
