Isaiah 20
1 In the year when Sargon, king of Assyria, sent his army commander to attack the town of Ashdod and conquered it,
Na mobu oyo mokonzi monene ya basoda, oyo Sargoni, mokonzi ya Asiri, atindaki, ayaki kobundisa mpe kobotola engumba Asidodi;
2 at that time the Lord spoke through Isaiah, son of Amoz. He told him, “Take off the sackcloth clothes from your body and remove your sandals.” Isaiah did so and went around naked and barefoot.
kaka na tango wana, Yawe alobaki maloba oyo na nzela ya Ezayi, mwana mobali ya Amotsi: « Kende, longola bilamba ya saki na nzoto na yo, mpe basapato na makolo na yo. » Mpe asalaki kaka bongo; akomaki kotambola bolumbu mpe makolo ngulu.
3 Then the Lord said, “In the same way that my servant Isaiah has gone naked and barefoot for three years as a sign and a warning against Egypt and Ethiopia,
Bongo Yawe alobaki: « Lokola mosali na Ngai, Ezayi, atamboli bolumbu mpe makolo ngulu mibu misato mpo na kozala elembo mpe ekamwiseli na miso ya Ejipito mpe ya Kushi,
4 so shall the king of Assyria lead the Egyptian prisoners and the Ethiopian exiles, both young and old, naked and barefoot. Their buttocks will be bare, to Egypt's shame.
mokonzi ya Asiri akomema bakangami ya Ejipito mpe bawumbu ya Kushi bolumbu mpe makolo ngulu: ezala bilenge to bampaka, bakotambola bolumbu mpe makolo ngulu mpo na soni ya Ejipito.
5 They will be discouraged and humiliated because they had put their hope in Ethiopia and proudly trusted in Egypt.
Bato nyonso oyo batiaki elikya na bango na Kushi mpe bakomaki lofundu mpo na Ejipito bakokweya mpe bakotonda na soni.
6 At that time the people living in the coastal lands will say, ‘Look what has happened those we were depending on! We ran to them for help to save us from the king of Assyria. We don't stand a chance!’”
Na mokolo wana, bavandi ya esanga bakoloba: ‹ Tala, makambo nini ekomeli bato oyo biso tozalaki kotiela mitema? Tozalaki kokima epai na bango mpo na kozwa lisungi mpe lobiko liboso ya mokonzi ya Asiri. Biso sik’oyo tokosuka ndenge nini? › »
