Isaiah 22:23
Douay-Rheims
And I will fasten him as a peg in a sure place, and he shall be for a throne of glory to the house of his father.
Rashi
And I will thrust him like a peg in a sure place (Jonathan renders:) And I will appoint him a faithful trustee, serving in a sure place. Jonathan renders נֶאֱמָן as sure, i.e., a place that is faithful to those who lean on it, for it shall not move. Another explanation is to reverse the word order of the verse: And I will thrust him a sure peg in a place.
