"Then it will come about in that day, That I will summon My servant ^(ab)Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,

And I will clothe him with your tunic And tie your sash securely about him. I will entrust him with your ^[t]authority, And he will become a ^(ac)father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

"Then I will set ^(ad)the key of the ^(ae)house of David on his shoulder, When he opens no one will shut, When he shuts no one will ^(af)open.

"I will drive him like a ^(ag)peg in a firm place, And he will become a ^(ah)throne of glory to his father's house.

So they will hang on him all the glory of his father's house, offspring and ^[u]issue, all the least of vessels, from bowls to all the jars.

In that day," declares the Lord of hosts, "the ^(ai)peg driven in a firm place will give way; it will even ^(aj)break off and fall, and the load hanging on it will be cut off, for the ^(ak) Lord has spoken."
