20 (A)Mu mwaka Talutani omuduumizi w’oku ntikko mwe yajjira mu Asudodi ng’atumiddwa Salugoni kabaka we Bwasuli n’alwana ne Asudodi n’akiwamba; (B)mu kiseera ekyo Mukama Katonda n’ayogera ne Isaaya mutabani wa Amozi nti, “Genda osumulule ebibukutu mu kiwato kyo era oyambulemu engatto mu bigere byo.” N’akola bw’atyo n’atambula engatto ng’aziggyemu.

(E)Era balitya bakwatibwe ensonyi olwa Kuusi essuubi lyabwe, n’olwa Misiri ekitiibwa kyabwe. (F)Ku olwo abantu abatuula ku lubalama lw’ennyanja baligamba nti, ‘Mulabe ekigudde ku bantu be tubadde twesiga okutukuuma, gye twadda tuwonyezebwe nga tudduka kabaka w’e Bwasuli! Kaakano ffe tunaawonyezebwa tutya?’ ”

预言埃及与古实被掳

20 亚述撒珥根打发他珥探亚实突的那年,他珥探就攻打亚实突,将城攻取。 那时,耶和华晓谕亚摩斯的儿子以赛亚说:“你去,解掉你腰间的麻布,脱下你脚上的鞋。”以赛亚就这样做,露身赤脚行走。 耶和华说:“我仆人以赛亚怎样露身赤脚行走三年,作为关乎埃及古实的预兆奇迹, 照样,亚述王也必掳去埃及人,掠去古实人,无论老少,都露身赤脚,现出下体,使埃及蒙羞。 以色列人必因所仰望的古实、所夸耀的埃及,惊惶羞愧。 那时,这沿海一带的居民必说:‘看哪,我们素所仰望的,就是我们为脱离亚述王逃往求救的,不过是如此!我们怎能逃脱呢?’”

A Prophecy Against Egypt and Cush

20 In the year that the supreme commander,(A) sent by Sargon king of Assyria, came to Ashdod(B) and attacked and captured it— at that time the Lord spoke through Isaiah son of Amoz.(C) He said to him, “Take off the sackcloth(D) from your body and the sandals(E) from your feet.” And he did so, going around stripped(F) and barefoot.(G)

Then the Lord said, “Just as my servant(H) Isaiah has gone stripped and barefoot for three years,(I) as a sign(J) and portent(K) against Egypt(L) and Cush,[a](M) so the king(N) of Assyria will lead away stripped(O) and barefoot the Egyptian captives(P) and Cushite(Q) exiles, young and old, with buttocks bared(R)—to Egypt’s shame.(S) Those who trusted(T) in Cush(U) and boasted in Egypt(V) will be dismayed and put to shame.(W) In that day(X) the people who live on this coast will say, ‘See what has happened(Y) to those we relied on,(Z) those we fled to for help(AA) and deliverance from the king of Assyria! How then can we escape?(AB)’”
