Isaiah 22:16-18

The Voice

¹⁶     “Why are you here, anyway? Do you really belong here?
        What right do you have to build yourself an elegant tomb
    And stone monument here out of the rock on this hill?
¹⁷     Look, strong man! The Eternal is about to throw you out,
        wildly, violently. With a firm grasp
¹⁸     He will crush you like a ball—hurl you deep into a land
        far, far away where you go to die.
    You will be known as the shame of your master’s house
        and your splendid chariots will lie empty.
