< Isaiah 20 >
1 In the year of the coming in of Tartan to Ashdod, when Sargon king of Asshur sendeth him, and he fighteth against Ashdod, and captureth it,
亚述王撒珥根打发他珥探到亚实突的那年,他珥探就攻打亚实突,将城攻取。
2 at that time spake Jehovah by the hand of Isaiah son of Amoz, saying, 'Go, and thou hast loosed the sackcloth from off thy loins, and thy sandal thou dost draw from off thy foot,' and he doth so, going naked and barefoot.
那时,耶和华晓谕亚摩斯的儿子以赛亚说:“你去解掉你腰间的麻布,脱下你脚上的鞋。”以赛亚就这样做,露身赤脚行走。
3 And Jehovah saith, 'As My servant Isaiah hath gone naked and barefoot three years, a sign and a wonder for Egypt and for Cush,
耶和华说:“我仆人以赛亚怎样露身赤脚行走三年,作为关乎埃及和古实的预兆奇迹。
4 so doth the king of Asshur lead the captivity of Egypt, and the removal of Cush, young and old, naked and barefoot, with seat uncovered — the nakedness of Egypt;
照样,亚述王也必掳去埃及人,掠去古实人,无论老少,都露身赤脚,现出下体,使埃及蒙羞。
5 and they have been affrighted and ashamed of Cush their confidence, and of Egypt their beauty,
以色列人必因所仰望的古实,所夸耀的埃及,惊惶羞愧。
6 and the inhabitant of this isle hath said in that day — Lo, thus [is] our trust, Whither we have fled for help, To be delivered from the king of Asshur, And how do we escape — we?'
“那时,这沿海一带的居民必说:‘看哪,我们素所仰望的,就是我们为脱离亚述王逃往求救的,不过是如此!我们怎能逃脱呢?’”
