< イザヤ書 20 >
1 アツスリヤのサルゴン王タルタンを遣してアシドドにゆかしむ 彼がアシドドを攻てとりし年にあたり
In the year that Tartan came into Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and took it;
2 この時ヱホバ、アモツの子イザヤに托てかたりたまはく 往なんぢの腰よりあらたへの衣をとき汝の足より履をぬげ ここに於てかれその如くなし赤裸跣足にて歩めり
at that time the LORD spoke by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying: 'Go, and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and put thy shoe from off thy foot.' And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.
3 ヱホバ言給く わが僕イザヤは三年の間はだかはだしにてあゆみ エジプトとエテオピアとの豫兆となり奇しき標となりたり
And the LORD said: 'Like as My servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot to be for three years a sign and a wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia,
4 斯のごとくエジプトの虜とエテオピアの俘囚とはアツスリヤの王にひきゆかれ その若きも老たるもみな赤裸跣足にて臀までもあらはしエジプトの恥をしめすべし
so shall the king of Assyria lead away the captives of Egypt, and the exiles of Ethiopia, young and old, naked and barefoot, and with buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.
5 かれらはその恃とせるエテオピアその誇とせるエジプトのゆゑをもて懼れはぢん
And they shall be dismayed and ashamed, because of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.
6 その日この濱邊の民いはん 視よ われらの恃とせる國われらが遁れゆきて助をもとめアツスリヤ王の手より救出されんとせし國すでに斯のごとし 我儕はいかにして脱かるるを得んやと
And the inhabitant of this coast-land shall say in that day: Behold, such is our expectation, whither we fled for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria; and how shall we escape?'
