Prophecy
about Egypt and Ethiopia |
|
|
 |
| Isaiah 20:1 |
|
In the year that the commander came to Ashdod,
when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him and he fought against Ashdod and captured
it, |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 20:2 |
|
at that time the LORD spoke through Isaiah the
son of Amoz, saying, "Go and loosen the sackcloth from your hips and take your
shoes off your feet." And he did so, going naked and barefoot. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 20:3 |
|
And the LORD said, "Even as My servant Isaiah
has gone naked and barefoot three years as a sign and token against Egypt and
Cush, |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 20:4 |
|
so the king of Assyria will lead away the captives
of Egypt and the exiles of Cush, young and old, naked and barefoot with buttocks
uncovered, to the shame of Egypt. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 20:5 |
|
"Then they will be dismayed and ashamed because
of Cush their hope and Egypt their boast. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 20:6 |
|
"So the inhabitants of this coastland will say
in that day, 'Behold, such is our hope, where we fled for help to be delivered
from the king of Assyria; and we, how shall we escape?'" |
