15Thus says the Lord Yahweh of hosts: Go, come to this steward, to Shebna, who is over the house:

16What do you have here, and whom do you have here, that you have cut out a tomb for yourself here, cutting out his tomb on the height, carving a dwelling for himself in the rock?

17Look, Yahweh is about to hurl you away violently, O man, and wrap you up tightly.

18He will surely wrap you up tightly, like a ball, into a broad land. There you will die, and there will be the chariots of your glory, O shame of your master's house.

19And I will thrust you from your office, and he will pull you down from your station.
