Isaiah 20

1 Before the year that the chief commander, sent by Sargon king of Assyria, came to Ashdod and attacked and captured it,

Godine koje doðe Tartan na Azot, kad ga posla Sargon car Asirski, te bi Azot i uze ga,

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.

U to vrijeme reèe Gospod preko Isaije sina Amosova govoreæi: idi, skini kostrijet sa sebe, i izuj obuæu s nogu svojih. I uèini tako i iðaše go i bos.

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,

Tada reèe Gospod: kako ide sluga moj Isaija go i bos za znak i èudo što æe biti do tri godine Misiru i Etiopskoj,

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 buttocks—to Egypt’s shame.

Tako æe odvesti car Asirski u ropstvo Misirce, i Etiopljane u sužanjstvo, djecu i starce, gole i bose i golijeh zadnjica, na sramotu Misircima.

5 Those who made Cush their hope and Egypt their boast will be dismayed and ashamed.

I prepašæe se i posramiæe se od Etiopske, uzdanice svoje, i od Misira, ponosa svojega.

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?’”

I reæi æe tada koji žive na ovom ostrvu: gle, to je uzdanica naša, ka kojoj pritjecasmo za pomoæ da se saèuvamo od cara Asirskoga; kako æemo se izbaviti?
