Esias 20

1 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;

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

2 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.

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 Esaias has walked naked and barefoot three years, there shall be three years for signs and wonders to the Egyptians and Ethiopians;

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 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.

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

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

6 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?

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?’”
