Isaiah 22:17 in Context — Isaiah 22

15 Jehová de los ejércitos dice así: Ve, entra á este tesorero, á Sebna el mayordomo, [y dile]:

16 ¿Qué tienes tú aquí, ó á quién tienes tú aquí, que labraste aquí sepulcro para ti, [como] el que en lugar alto labra su sepultura, ó el que esculpe para sí morada en una peña?

17 He aquí que Jehová te trasportará en duro cautiverio, y de cierto te cubrirá [el rostro].

18 Te echará á rodar con ímpetu, como á bola por tierra larga de términos: allá morirás, y allá estarán los carros de tu gloria, oh vergüenza de la casa de tu señor.

19 Y arrojarte he de tu lugar, y de tu puesto te empujaré.
