1 In the year that Tartan came unto Ashdod, (when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him,) and fought against Ashdod, and took it; 2 At the same time spake the LORD by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and put off thy shoe from thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot. 3 And the LORD said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia; 4 So shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians prisoners, and the Ethiopians captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, even with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt. 5 And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory. 6 And the inhabitant of this isle shall say in that day, Behold, such is our expectation, whither we flee for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria: and how shall we escape?
1 in anno quo ingressus est Tharthan in Azotum
cum misisset eum Sargon rex Assyriorum
et pugnasset contra Azotum et cepisset eam
2 in tempore illo locutus est Dominus in manu Isaiae filii Amos dicens
vade et solve saccum de lumbis tuis
et calciamenta tua tolle de pedibus tuis
et fecit sic vadens nudus et disculciatus
3 et dixit Dominus
sicut ambulavit servus meus Isaias nudus et disculciatus
trium annorum signum et portentum erit super Aegyptum et super
Aethiopiam
4 sic minabit rex Assyriorum captivitatem Aegypti et transmigrationem
Aethiopiae
iuvenum et senum nudam et disculciatam
discopertis natibus ignominiam Aegypti
5 et timebunt et confundentur ab Aethiopia spe sua
et ab Aegypto gloria sua
6 et dicet habitator insulae huius in die illa
ecce haec erat spes nostra ad quos confugimus in auxilium
ut liberaret nos a facie regis Assyriorum
et quomodo effugere poterimus nos
