Aizaia 20

1 Hanki ana kafufina Asiria kini ne' Sargoni'a sondia vahe'are ugota hu'nea kva ne'a huntegeno sondia vahera zamavareno vuno, Astodi kumate vahera hara ome huzmanteno zamazeri zamagatere'ne.

One year King Sargon of Assyria sent the chief commander of his army [to take his soldiers] to capture Ashdod [city in Philistia].

2 Hagi anama hia knafina, Ra Anumzamo'a Amosi nemofo Aisaiana amanage huno nanekea asami'ne, kasunku kukenama hu'nana zana kavufaretira ome zafi netrenka, kagia noma vazi'nanana ome kazufe atro. Higeno kema hiaza huno zafi netreno, avufa avapako agia nona agiafina omanenegeno amne vano hu'ne.

At that time, Yahweh told me, “Take off the rough sackcloth that you have been wearing and take off your sandals.” [So] I did what he told me to do, and [then] I walked around naked and barefoot [for three years].

3 Hagi anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, eri'za vahe'ni'a Aisaia'ma avufga avapako'ene agianoma ontani'ma 3'a kafufima vanoma hu'neana, e'i Isipi kumamo'ene Itiopia kumamoke'ma knazampima ufresnanke'zama nege'za kva hanazegu, e'i ana avame'zana tro hu'ne.

[Then] Yahweh said this [to the people of Judah]: “My servant Isaiah has been walking around naked and barefoot for the past three years. That is to show the terrible disasters that [I will cause the people of] Egypt and Ethiopia to experience.

4 Ana hu'negu Asiria kini ne'mo'a vuno ana tare kumatmimpinti vahera ha' ome huzmagatereteno, tavava ozafaramine, kasefa veatamine, zamavufaga avapako zamagia nona omanesiaza zamavareno kina ome huzmanteku vugahie. Ana hanige'za Isipi mopare zamavufaga zamavapako mani'ne'za tusi zamagazegu hugahaze.

What will happen is that the [army of the] King of Assyria will [invade those countries and capture many of the people and] take them away as their prisoners. They will force all them, including both the young ones and the old ones, to walk naked and barefoot. They will [also] force them to have no clothes around their buttocks, which will cause [the people of] Egypt to be ashamed.

5 Hanki anama hanage'za Itiopia vaheku'ma amuha'ma nehu'za, Isipi vaheku'ma zamimizama runafe'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za, tusi koro nehu'za, zamagazegu hugahaze.

Then the people of other countries who trusted that the armies of Egypt and Ethiopia would be able to help them will be very dismayed/confused and afraid/disappointed.

6 Hanki ana knafina hagerimofo ankenaregama mani'za vu'naza vahe'mo'za amanage hugahaze, keho, Asiria kini neku'ma koro'ma freta vanunke'zama tagu'vazigahazema huta antahima nezamuna vahera hago haviza hu'naze. E'ina hu'neankita Asiria kini ne'mofo azampintira atreta ofregahune huta hugahaze.

They will say, ‘We trusted that the armies of Egypt and Ethiopia [would help us and defend us, but they have been destroyed], so there is no way [RHQ] that we can escape from [being destroyed by the army of] the King of Assyria!’”
