Isaiah 20 📜 📕 ↷
A Sign against Egypt and Cush
1 IN the year that Tharthan entered into Azotus, when Sargon the king of the Assyrians had sent him, and he had fought against Azotus, and had taken it:📜💬📚
2 at that time our Lord spake in the hand of Isaie the son of Amos, saying: Go, and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and take off thy shoes from thy feet. And he did so going naked, and barefoot.📜💬📚
3 And our Lord said: As my servant Isaie hath walked, naked and barefoot, it shall be a sign and a wonder of three years upon AEgypt, and upon Aethiopia,📜💬📚
4 so shall the king of the Assyrians lead the captivity of AEgypt, and the transmigration of Aethiopia, young and old, naked and unshod, their buttocks uncovered to the ignominy of AEgypt.📜💬📚
5 And they shall fear, & be ashamed of Aethiopia their hope, and of AEgypt their glory.📜💬📚
6 And the inhabitant of this isle shall say in that day: Lo this was our hope, to whom we fled for help, that they should deliver us from the face of the king of the Assyrians: and how shall we be able to escape?📜💬📚
