23 And I will fasten him like a ^opeg in a secure place, and he will become a throne of honor to his father’s house.

25 In that day, declares the Lord of hosts, the peg that was fastened in a secure place will give way, and it will be cut down and fall, and the load that was on it will be cut off, for the Lord has spoken.”
