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 year that Tartan came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him, he fought against Ashdod and took 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 that time Yahweh spoke by Isaiah son of Amoz and said, “Go and remove the sackcloth from your waist, and take your sandals off your feet.” He did so, walking naked and barefoot.

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,

Yahweh said, “Just as my servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot for three years, it is a sign and an omen concerning Egypt and concerning Cush—

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.

in this way the king of Assyria will lead away the captives of Egypt, and the exiles of Cush, young and old, naked and barefoot, and with buttocks uncovered, 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.

They will be dismayed and ashamed, because of Cush their hope 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?’”

The inhabitants of these coasts will say on that day, 'Indeed, this was our source of hope, where we fled for help to be rescued from the king of Assyria, and now, how can we escape?'”
