Yesaya 22:18

22:18 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 

Yesaya 28:6

28:6 He will give discernment to the one who makes judicial decisions,

and strength to those who defend the city from attackers. 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.

[28:6]  ⁴ tn Heb “and [he will become] a spirit of justice for the one who sits [i.e., presides] over judgment, // and strength [for] the ones who turn back battle at the city gate.” The Lord will provide internal stability and national security.
