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].
Ní ọdún tí olórí ogun, tí Sagoni ọba Asiria rán an, wá sí Aṣdodu, ó kọlù ú ó sì kó o—
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].
ní àkókò náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ti ẹnu Isaiah ọmọ Amosi jáde. Ó sọ fún un pé, “Mú aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ kúrò ní ara rẹ kí o sì bọ́ sálúbàtà kúrò ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ.” Ó sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ó ń lọ káàkiri ní ìhòhò àti láì wọ bàtà.
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.
Lẹ́yìn náà ni Olúwa wí pé, “Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìránṣẹ́ mi Isaiah ti lọ káàkiri ní ìhòhò àti láì wọ bàtà fún ọdún mẹ́ta, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àmì àti àpẹẹrẹ sí Ejibiti àti Kuṣi,
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.
bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ni ọba Asiria yóò kó àwọn ìgbèkùn Ejibiti lọ ní ìhòhò àti láì wọ bàtà pẹ̀lú àwọn àtìpó Kuṣi, ọ̀dọ́ àti àgbà, pẹ̀lú ìbàdí ìhòhò—bí àbùkù Ejibiti.
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.
Gbogbo àwọn tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Kuṣi tí wọ́n sì ń fi Ejibiti yangàn ni ẹ̀rù yóò dé bá tí a ó sì dójútì wọ́n.
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!’”
Ní ọjọ́ náà àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ń gbé ní etí Òkun yóò wí pé, ‘Wo ohun tí ó ti ṣẹlẹ̀ sí àwọn tí a ti gbẹ́kẹ̀lé, àwọn tí a sá tọ̀ lọ fún ìrànlọ́wọ́ àti ìtúsílẹ̀ láti ọwọ́ ọba Asiria! Báwo ni a ó ṣe sálà?’”
