Ezayi 20

1 Nan ane ke kòmandan Asiryen an te vini Asdod la, lè Sargon, wa Assyrie a, te voye li goumen kont Asdod la pou te pran li,

In the yeere that Tartan came to Ashdod, (when Sargon King of Asshur sent him) and had fought against Ashdod, and taken it,

2 nan lè ke SENYÈ a te pale pa Ésaïe, fis a Amots la, epi te di: “Ale retire twal sak la sou kwis ou e retire soulye nan pye ou.” Se konsa li te fè, epi li te ale toutouni, epi pye a tè.

At the same time spake the Lord by ye hand of Isaiah the sonne of Amoz, saying, Goe, and loose the sackecloth from thy loynes, and put off thy shooe from thy foote. And he did so, walking naked and barefoote.

3 Konsa, SENYÈ a te di: “Menm jan tankou sèvitè Mwen an, Ésaïe, te ale toutouni e pye atè pandan twazan kon yon sign nan, e kon yon avètisman kont Égypte ak Éthiopie,

And the Lord said, Like as my seruant Isaiah hath walked naked, and barefoote three yeeres, as a signe and wonder vpon Egypt, and Ethiopia,

4 menm jan, wa a Assyrie va mennen fè sòti kaptif Ejipsyen yo ansanm ak egzile Éthiopie yo jenn kon vye, toutouni, e pye atè ak tout do yo dekouvri, pou fè Égypte vin wont.

So shall the King of Asshur take away the captiuitie of Egypt, and the captiuitie of Ethiopia, both yong men and olde men, naked and barefoote, with their buttockes vncouered, to the shame of Egypt.

5 Epi yo va vin dezole e wont akoz Éthiopie, ki te espwa yo, e anplis ak Égypte, fyète yo a.

And they shall feare, and be ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

6 Pou sa, moun ki rete nan peyi bò lanmè sa a, va di nan jou sa a: ‘Gade byen, se konsa espwa nou vin rive! Gade kote nou te kouri ale pou sekou, pou delivre anba men wa a Assyrie a! Epi koulye a, nou menm, se kòman nou va chape?’”

Then shall the inhabitant of this yle say in that day, Behold, such is our expectation, whither we fledde for helpe to be deliuered from the King of Asshur, and howe shall we be deliuered?
