Isaiah 20

1 Assyria lengpa Sargon in, a sepai jalam kaipa henga Philistine khopi Ashdod lo dinga thu apeh khum chun,

In the year when Tanathan came to Azotus, when he was sent by Arna king of the Assyrians, and warred against Azotus, and took it;

2 Pakai in Amoz chapa Isaiah henga aseijin, “Na von chu sutlhan lang na kengchot teni jongchu koidoh in.” Isaiah in akisei bang chun abolin, sagoh keoleh kengkeo in avahlen ahi.

then the Lord spoke to Esaias the son of Amos, saying, Go and take the sackcloth off your loins, and loose your sandals from off your feet, and do thus, going naked and barefoot.

3 Hichun Pakai in ahin seijin, “Ka sohpa Isaiah hi kumthum ahitai sagoh keo leh kengkeo va avalena hi. Hiche hi melchihna ahi-Egypt leh Ethiopia chunga hahsatna lentah kalhun sah ding vetsahna lim ahi.

And the Lord said, As my servant Esaias has walked naked and barefoot three years, there shall be three years for signs and wonders to the Egyptians and Ethiopians;

4 Ajeh chu Assyria lengpan Egypt teleh Ethiopia te songkul tang dinga apui mang ding ahi. Sagoh keo leh kengchot beija avaleh sah ding, Egypt mite jumna dinga aneo alen atokeu uva alhat lesah ding ahi.

for thus shall the king of the Assyrians lead the captivity of Egypt and the Ethiopians, young men and old, naked and barefoot, having the shame of Egypt exposed.

5 Chuteng Philistine te lung linglao a umdiu ahi. Ajehchu amahon Ethiopia thanei akisonpiu va, chuleh akisamkai piu Egypt a kiletsah piu ahi.

And the Egyptians being defeated shall be ashamed of the Ethiopians, in whom they had trusted; for they were their glory.

6 Hitia hi asei diu ahi, 'Hitobang hi Egypt te chunga ahunglhun theileh, eihon ipi agom kom phat inei diu ham? Assyria lengpa akona eihuhdoh dinguva Egypt te ina kisonpiu ahi.”

And they that dwell in this island shall say in that day, Behold, we trusted to flee to them for help, who could not save themselves from the king of the Assyrians: and how shall we be saved?
