Isaiah 22:18 He will surely violently turn and toss you like a ball into a large country: there shall you die… Those that, when they are in power, turn and toss others, will be justly turned and tossed themselves when their day shall come to fall. Many that have thought themselves fastened like a nail may come to be tossed like a ball, for here have we no continuing city. Shebna thought his place too strait for him, he had no room to thrive; God will, therefore, send him into "a large country," where he shall have room to wander, but never find the way back again. ( M. Henry.) Parallel Verses KJV: He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord's house. |
