Isaiah 22:21

A Message for Shebna

20On that day I will summon My servant, Eliakim son of Hilkiah.21I will clothe him with your robe and tie your sash around him. I will put your authority in his hand, and he will be a father to the dwellers of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. 22I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.
