Ishaya 20

1 A shekarar da babban shugaban yaƙin da Sargon sarkin Assuriya ya aika, ya zo Ashdod ya kuma fāɗa mata ya kuma ci ta da yaƙi,

In the year that Tartan entered Ashdod, when Sargon king of Assyria, sent him, —and he fought against Ashdod and captured it, —

2 a wannan lokaci Ubangiji ya yi magana ta wurin Ishaya ɗan Amoz. Ya ce masa, “Tuɓe tsummokin da kake saye da su, da kuma takalman da ka sa a ƙafafu.” Ya kuwa yi haka, yana yawo tsirara kuma ba takalma a ƙafa.

At that time, spake Yahweh, through Isaiah son of Amoz, saying, Go, and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, And thy sandal, draw thou off from thy foot, —And he did so, walking disrobed and barefoot.

3 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce, “Kamar dai yadda bawana Ishaya ya yi ta yawo tsirara kuma ba takalmi a ƙafa shekara uku, a matsayin alama da shaida a kan Masar da Kush,

Then said Yahweh, —As my servant Isaiah, hath walked, disrobed and barefoot three years as a sign and a wonder against Egypt and against Ethiopia,

4 haka sarkin Assuriya zai kwashe kamammun Masarawa da Kushawa tsirara kuma ba takalma a ƙafa, yaro da babba, asirinsu a tsiraice, don a kunyata Masar.

So, shall the king of Assyria lead away the captives of Egypt and the exiles of Ethiopia young and old disrobed and barefoot, with their persons behind Uncovered the shame of Egypt.

5 Waɗanda suka dogara ga Kush suka yi taƙama da Masar za su ji tsoro su kuma sha kunya.

Thus shall they be confounded and turn pale, —For Ethiopia, their expectation, and For Egypt their boast;

6 A wannan rana mutanen da suke zama a bakin teku za su ce, ‘Dubi abin da ya faru da waɗanda muka dogara a kai, waɗanda muka gudu muka je don neman taimako da ceto daga sarkin Assuriya! Yaya za mu tsira?’”

And the inhabitant of this shore, shall exclaim, in that day, Lo! such, is our expectation, whereunto we fled for help, that we might be delivered from the presence of the king of Assyria! How then shall, we, escape?
