- Kapitel 20 -

1
Before the year that the chief commander, sent by Sargon king of Assyria, came to Ashdod and attacked and captured it,
2
the LORD had already spoken through Isaiah son of Amoz, saying, “Go, remove the sackcloth from your waist and the sandals from your feet.” And Isaiah did so, walking around naked and barefoot.
3
Then the LORD said, “Just as My servant Isaiah has gone naked and barefoot for three years as a sign and omen against Egypt and Cush,(a)
4
so the king of Assyria will lead away the captives of Egypt and the exiles of Cush, young and old alike, naked and barefoot, with bared buttocksto Egypt’s shame.
5
Those who made Cush their hope and Egypt their boast will be dismayed and ashamed.
6
And on that day the dwellers of this coastland will say, ‘See what has happened to our source of hope, those to whom we fled for help and deliverance from the king of Assyria! How then can we escape?’”
