20And this shall happen:

On that day I will call to my servant, Eliakim son of Hilkiah,

21and I will clothe him with your tunic,

and I will bind your sash firmly about him,

and I will put your authority into his hand,

and he shall be like a father to the inhabitantss of Jerusalem

and to the house of Judah.

22And I will put the key of the house of David on his shoulder,

and he shall open and no one will be able to shut;

and he shall shut and no one will be able to open.

23And I will drive him in like a peg into a secure place,

and he will become like a throne of glory to the house of his father.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

In that day I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and I will clothe him with your robe, and will bind your sash on him, and will commit your authority to his hand. And he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. And I will place on his shoulder the key of the house of David. He shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open. And I will fasten him like a peg in a secure place, and he will become a throne of honor to his father’s house.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“In that day I will summon my servant, Eliakim son of Hilkiah. I will clothe him with your robe and fasten your sash around him and hand your authority over to him. He will be a father to those who live in Jerusalem and to the people of Judah. I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David; what he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. I will drive him like a peg into a firm place; he will become a seat of honor for the house of his father.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

“On that day I will call for my servant, Eliakim son of Hilkiah. I will clothe him with your robe and tie your sash around him. I will hand your authority over to him, and he will be like a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. I will place the key of the house of David on his shoulder; what he opens, no one can close; what he closes, no one can open. I will drive him, like a peg, into a firm place. He will be a throne of honor for his father’s family.

NLTNew Living Translation

And then I will call my servant Eliakim son of Hilkiah to replace you. I will dress him in your royal robes and will give him your title and your authority. And he will be a father to the people of Jerusalem and Judah. I will give him the key to the house of David—the highest position in the royal court. When he opens doors, no one will be able to close them; when he closes doors, no one will be able to open them. He will bring honor to his family name, for I will drive him firmly in place like a nail in the wall.

KJV 1900King James Version

And it shall come to pass in that day,

That I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:

And I will clothe him with thy robe,

And strengthen him with thy girdle,

And I will commit thy government into his hand:

And he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem,

And to the house of Judah.

And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder;

So he shall open, and none shall shut;

And he shall shut, and none shall open.

And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place;

And he shall be for a glorious throne to his father’s house.
