Isaiah 20

1 In the year that Tharthan entered into Azotus, when Sargon the king of the Assyrians had sent him, and he had fought against Azotus, and had taken it:

E higano mane Sargon ruodh Asuria nooro jatend lweny maduongʼ, nodhi Ashdod mi omonje kendo okawe,

2 At that same time the Lord spoke by the hand of Isaias the son of Amos, saying: Go, and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and take off thy shoes from thy feet. And he did so, and went naked, and barefoot.

kendo e ndalono ema ne Jehova Nyasaye owuoyo kokalo kuom Isaya wuod Amoz. Nowachone niya, “Gony pien gugru manie dendi kendo ilony wuocheni oko e tiendi.” Kendo notimo kamano kowuotho duk gi tiende nono.

3 And the Lord said: As my servant Isaias hath walked, naked and barefoot, it shall be a sign and a wonder of three years upon Egypt, and upon Ethiopia,

Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Mana kaka jatichna Isaya oselonyore duk mowuotho gi tiende nono kuom higni adek, kobedo ranyisi kuom gima timore ne Misri kod Kush,

4 So shall the king of the Assyrians lead away the prisoners of Egypt, and the captivity of Ethiopia, young and old. naked and barefoot, with their buttocks uncovered to the shame of Egypt.

omiyo ruodh Asuria biro sembo jo-Misri kod jo-Kush ma osemako duto, jomatindo kod jomadongo. Giniwuoth duge gi tiendegi nono, ka siandagi neno, mi mano nobed wichkuot ni jo-Misri.

5 And they shall be afraid, and ashamed of Ethiopia their hope, and of Egypt their glory.

Ji mane oketo genoni kuom jo-Kush, kendo tingʼore malo nikech jo-Misri nobed gi luoro kod wichkuot.

6 And the inhabitants of this isle shall say in that day: Lo this was our hope, to whom we fled for help, to deliver up from the face of the king of the Assyrians: and how shall we be able to escape?

E kindeno jogo modak e dho namni nowach ni, ‘Neuru gima osetimore ne joma waketo genowa kuomgi, joma ne waringo kuomgi mondo okonywa kendo oreswa e lwet ruodh Asuria! To koro, ere kaka wanatony?’”
