Isaiah 22:18
Context22:18 He will wind you up tightly into a ball
and throw you into a wide, open land. 1
There you will die,
and there with you will be your impressive chariots, 2
which bring disgrace to the house of your master. 3
Isaiah 62:2
Context62:2 Nations will see your vindication,
and all kings your splendor.
You will be called by a new name
that the Lord himself will give you. 4


[22:18] 1 tn Heb “and he will tightly [or “surely”] wind you [with] winding like a ball, to a land broad of hands [i.e., “sides”].”
[22:18] 2 tn Heb “and there the chariots of your splendor.”
[22:18] 3 sn Apparently the reference to chariots alludes to Shebna’s excessive pride, which in turn brings disgrace to the royal family.
[62:2] 4 tn Heb “which the mouth of the Lord will designate.”
