15. Thus says my Lord Adonai-Tzva’ot: “Go, say to this steward, to Shebna, who is over the house:
16. ‘What are you doing here, and who are you to be here, that you cut out a grave for yourself, carving out a tomb on the height, chiseling a crypt for yourself in the rock?
17. Behold, strong man, Adonai is about to hurl you headlong, and seize you firmly.
18. He will roll you up tightly and toss you like a ball into a large country. There you will die, and your glorious chariots will be the shame of your Master’s house.
19. I will remove you from your post, and pull you down from your station.
20. “In that day I will summon my servant Eliakim, son of Hilkiah.
21. I will clothe him in your robe and fasten your sash on him. I will give your authority into his hands, so he will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.
