以赛亚书 20
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
預言埃及與古實被擄
20 亞述王撒珥根差派統帥去亞實突的那年，那統帥就攻打亞實突，把城佔領。 2 那時，耶和華藉著亞摩斯的兒子以賽亞說：“你解開你腰間的麻布，脫去你腳上的鞋。”以賽亞就這樣作了，露體赤足行走。 3 耶和華說：“我的僕人以賽亞怎樣露體赤足行走了三年，作攻擊埃及和古實的預兆和兆頭， 4 亞述王也必照樣把埃及的俘虜和古實被放逐的人帶走，無論老少，都露體赤足，露出下體，使埃及蒙羞。 5 以色列人必因他們所仰望的古實和他們所誇耀的埃及，驚惶羞愧。 6 到那日，這沿海的居民必說：‘看哪！我們所仰望的，就是我們為著脫離亞述王，逃往投靠的，也不過是這樣。我們又怎能逃脫呢？’”
Isaiah 20
New King James Version
The Sign Against Egypt and Ethiopia
20 In the year that (A)Tartan[a] came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and took it, 2 at the same time the Lord spoke by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, “Go, and remove (B)the sackcloth from your [b]body, and take your sandals off your feet.” And he did so, (C)walking naked and barefoot.
3 Then the Lord said, “Just as My servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot three years (D)for a sign and a wonder against Egypt and Ethiopia, 4 so shall the (E)king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians as prisoners and the Ethiopians as captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, (F)with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt. 5 (G)Then they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation and Egypt their glory. 6 And the inhabitant of this territory will say in that day, ‘Surely such is our expectation, wherever we flee for (H)help to be delivered from the king of Assyria; and how shall we escape?’ ”
