2 At the time that he spoke Yahweh by [the] hand of Isaiah [the] son of Amoz saying go and you will loosen the sackcloth from on hips your and sandal[s] your you will take off from on feet your and he did thus he went naked and barefoot.

They will be discouraged and humiliated because they had put their hope in Ethiopia and proudly trusted in Egypt.

6 And he will say [one who] dwells the coast this in the day that there! [is] thus hope our where we fled there for help to be delivered from before [the] king of Assyria and how? will we escape we.

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!’”
