< 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].
Léta, kteréhož přitáhl Tartan do Azotu, poslán jsa od Sargona, krále Assyrského, a když bojoval proti Azotu, a vzal jej,
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].
Èasu toho mluvil Hospodin skrze Izaiáše syna Amosova, řka: Jdi a slož žíni z bedr svých, a obuv svou zzuj s noh svých. I učinil tak, a chodil nahý a bosý.
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.
I řekl Hospodin: Jakož chodí služebník můj Izaiáš nahý a bosý, na znamení a zázrak, třetího roku Egypta a Mouřenínské země,
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.
Tak povede král Assyrský jaté Egyptské a jaté Mouřenínské, mladé i staré, nahé a bosé, s obnaženými zadky, k hanbě Egyptských.
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.
I užasnou se a zahanbí nad Mouřeníny, útočištěm svým, a nad Egyptskými, chloubou svou.
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!’”
Tedy řekne obyvatel ostrovu tohoto v ten den: Aj hle, toť naše útočiště, k němuž jsme se utíkali o pomoc, abychom vysvobozeni byli z moci krále Assyrského. Jakž bychom my tedy ušli?
