Isaiah 22:17
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Look, O mighty man! The LORD is about to shake you violently. He will take hold of you,
In context
15 This is what the Lord GOD of Hosts says: “Go, say to Shebna, the steward in charge of the palace:
16 What are you doing here, and who authorized you to carve out a tomb for yourself here—to chisel your tomb in the height and cut your resting place in the rock?
17 Look, O mighty man! The LORD is about to shake you violently. He will take hold of you,
18 roll you into a ball, and sling you into a wide land. There you will die, and there your glorious chariots will remain—a disgrace to the house of your master.
19 I will remove you from office, and you will be ousted from your position.
