Isiah 22-24

An Oracle Concerning the Valley of Vision

[12] Therefore in that day Lord Yahweh of hosts called [you] to weeping, to wailing, To shaving the head, and to wearing sackcloth. 

[13] Instead, behold, [there is] joy and gladness, Killing of cattle and slaughtering of sheep, Eating of meat and drinking of wine: "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we may die." 

[14] But Yahweh of hosts revealed Himself in my ears, "Surely this iniquity shall not be atoned for you Until you die," says Lord Yahweh of hosts. 

[Isa 22:12-14 LSB]

[15] Thus says Lord Yahweh of hosts, "Come, go to this steward, To Shebna, who is in charge of the [royal] household, 

[16] 'What right do you have here, And whom do you have here, That you have hewn a tomb for yourself here, You who hew a tomb on the height, You who carve a dwelling place for yourself in the cliff? 

[Isa 22:15-16 LSB]

[20] "Then it will be in that day, That I will summon My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, ... 

[22] "Then I will set the key of the house of David on his shoulder, When he opens no one will shut, When he shuts no one will open. 

[Isa 22:20, 22 LSB]

An Oracle Concerning Tyre

[9] Yahweh of hosts has counseled it, to defile the pride of all beauty, To make contemptuous all the honored of the earth. [Isa 23:9 LSB]

[17] And it will be at the end of seventy years that Yahweh will visit Tyre. Then she will go back to her harlot's wages and will play the harlot with all the kingdoms on the face of the earth. 

[18] And her gain and her harlot's wages will be set apart to Yahweh; it will not be treasured up or hoarded, but her gain will become sufficient food and choice attire for those who inhabit the presence of Yahweh. 

[Isa 23:17-18 LSB]

Yahweh Will Empty the Earth

[1] Behold, Yahweh empties the earth to destruction, eviscerates it, distorts its surface, and scatters its inhabitants. [Isa 24:1 LSB]
