³ And there came out to him Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder.

¹⁶ And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the army; and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was keeper of the records;

¹⁷ And Zadok and Abiathar, the son of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, were priests; and Seraiah was the scribe;

²⁴ And Adoram was overseer of the forced work; and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the recorder;

²⁵ And Sheva was the scribe, and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;

¹⁵ The Lord, the Lord of armies, says, Go to this person in authority, this Shebna, who is over the house; who has made himself a resting-place on high, cutting out a place for himself in the rock, and say,

¹⁶ Who are you, and by what right have you made for yourself a resting-place here?

¹⁷ See, O strong man, the Lord will send you violently away, gripping you with force,

¹⁸ Twisting you round and round like a ball he will send you out into a wide country: there you will come to your end, and there will be the carriages of your pride, O shame of your lord's house!

¹⁹ And I will have you forced out of your place of authority, and pulled down from your position.

²⁰ And in that day I will send for my servant, Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah:

²¹ And I will put your robe on him, and put your band about him, and I will give your authority into his hand: and he will be a father to the men of Jerusalem, and to the family of Judah.
