Isaiah 20

1 In the year that Tharthan came unto Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him, and fought against Ashdod, and captured it;

I te tau i haere mai ai a Taratana ki Aharoro, i a ia i unga ra e Harakono kingi o Ahiria, i tana whawhaitanga ki Aharoro, a horo ana a reira i a ia;

2 At the same time spoke the Lord by means of Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loosen the sackcloth from off thy loins, and thy shoe shalt thou pull off from thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.

I taua wa ka korero a Ihowa, ara a Ihaia tama a Amoho, ka ki, Wetekina atu te kakahu taratara i tou hope, whakarerea atu ano tou hu i tou waewae. Na pera ana ia, haere tahanga ana, kahore hoki he hu.

3 And the Lord said, Just as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot three years as a sign and token for Egypt and for Cush:

Na ka mea a Ihowa, Ka rite ki taku pononga, ki a Ihaia, ka toru nei ona tau e haere tahanga ana, kahore hoki he hu, hei tohu, hei mea whakamiharo ki a Ihipa raua ko Etiopia;

4 So shall the king of Assyria lead away the prisoners of Egypt, and the exiles of Cush, young and old, naked and barefoot, even with uncovered buttocks, to the disgrace of Egypt.

Ka pena ano ta te kingi o Ahiria arahi i nga Ihipiana hei parau, i nga Etiopiana hei whakarau, i te taitamariki, i te kaumatua, kahore he kakahu, kahore he hu, takoto kau ana nga papa, whakama iho a Ihipa.

5 And they shall be terrified, and ashamed of Cush their trust, and of Egypt their vaunt.

Ka pororaru ano ratou, ka whakama ki a Etiopia, ki ta ratou i tumanako ai, ki a Ihipa ano, ki to ratou kororia.

6 And the inhabitant of this isle shall say on that day, Behold, such is our trust, whither we fled for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria: and how shall we then escape?

A e mea te tangata o taua takutai i taua ra, Nana, ko ta tatou tenei i tumanako ai, ko ta tatou i rere atu ai kia ora ai i te kingi o Ahiria; a me pehea tatou ka mawhiti ai?
