< Isaiah 20 >

1 One year King Sargon of Assyria sent the chief commander of his army [to take his soldiers] to capture Ashdod [city in Philistia].
Asilia hina bagade amo Sagone da hamoma: ne sia: beba: le, Asilia dadi gagui dunu hinadafa da Filisidini soge moilai amo A: siedode doagala: i.
2 At that time, Yahweh told me, “Take off the rough sackcloth that you have been wearing and take off your sandals.” [So] I did what he told me to do, and [then] I walked around naked and barefoot [for three years].
Be musa: Hina Gode da Aisaia (A: imose egefe) amo e da ea emo salasu amola ea eboboi abula gisa: ma: ne sia: i. Aisaia da amo sia: nabalu, ode udiana ganodini da: i nabado, amola emo salasu mae salawane udigili lalu, amalalu Asilia da doagala: i.
3 [Then] Yahweh said this [to the people of Judah]: “My servant Isaiah has been walking around naked and barefoot for the past three years. That is to show the terrible disasters that [I will cause the people of] Egypt and Ethiopia to experience.
Asilia dadi gagui dunu ilia da A: siedode moilai bai bagade suguli labeba: le, Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Na hawa: hamosu dunu Aisaia da da: i nabado amola emo salasu mae salawane, ode udiana ganodini udigili lalu. Amo da hou amo Idibidi amola Sudane amoma doaga: mu, dawa: digima: ne olelesu gala.
4 What will happen is that the [army of the] King of Assyria will [invade those countries and capture many of the people and] take them away as their prisoners. They will force all them, including both the young ones and the old ones, to walk naked and barefoot. They will [also] force them to have no clothes around their buttocks, which will cause [the people of] Egypt to be ashamed.
Asilia hina bagade da amo soge fi aduna ilima hasanasili, ela fi dunu da: i nabado agoane ga oule masunu. Mano amola da: i hamoi, ilia da da: i nabado amola emo salasu mae salawane masunu. Ilia gumisisu da hame dedeboiba: le, Idibidi fi dunu da bagade gogosiamu.
5 Then the people of other countries who trusted that the armies of Egypt and Ethiopia would be able to help them will be very dismayed/confused and afraid/disappointed.
Nowa dunu da Sudane fi ilima fa: no bobogei, amola Idibidi fi amo ilia hou gaguia gadoi galea, ilia defawaneyale dawa: su hou wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu, amola ilia da da: i diomu.
6 They will say, ‘We trusted that the armies of Egypt and Ethiopia [would help us and defend us, but they have been destroyed], so there is no way [RHQ] that we can escape from [being destroyed by the army of] the King of Assyria!’”
Amo eso da doaga: sea, dunu amo da Filisidini soge ganodini, hano wayabo bagade bega: esalebe da amane sia: mu, “Ninia da Idibidi dunu amola Sudane dunu, ilia da Asilia hina bagade nini mae hasanasima: ne, gaga: musa: dawa: i galu. Be wali, ninia da habodane esaloma: bela: ?”
