यशैया 20

1 अश्शूरका राजा सर्गानले टार्टनलाई अश्दोदमा पठाउँदा, तिनी आएको वर्षमा, तिनले अश्दोदको युद्ध लडे र त्‍यसलाई कब्जा गरे ।

In the year in which Tartan, being sent by Sargon, the king of Assyria, came to Ashdod, and fought against Ashdod, and took it,

2 त्यस बेला आमोजका छोरा यशैयाद्वारा परमप्रभु बोल्नुभयो र भन्‍नुभयो, “जा र तेरो कम्मरबाट भाङ्ग्रा हटा र तेरो खुट्टाको जुत्ता फुकाल् ।” नाङ्गो भएर र खाली खुट्टाले हिंडेर तिनले त्‍यसो गरे ।

at that time spake Jehovah through Isaiah the son of Amoz in this manner: Go, and loose the sackcloth from thy loins, and put off thy shoes from thy feet. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.

3 परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभयो, “जसरी मेरो सेवक यशैया तिन वर्षसम्म नाङ्गै र खाली खुट्टाले हिंडेका छन्, यो मिश्रदेश र कूशको निम्ति चिन्ह र शकून हो—

And Jehovah said: As my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot three years, a sign and a token for Egypt and Ethiopia,

4 यसरी नै अश्शूरका राजाले मिश्रदेशका कैदी र कूशका निर्वासित, जवान र वृद्धहरूलाई मिश्रदेशलाई लाजमा पार्न नाङ्गै, खाली खुट्टा र चाक नै देखाएर लैजानेछ ।

so shall the king of Assyria lead the captives of Egypt, and prisoners of Ethiopia, young and old, naked and barefoot, with their hind parts uncovered, to the shame of the Egyptians.

5 तिनीहरूका आशा कूश र तिनीहरूका गौरव मिश्रदेशको कारणले तिनीहरू व्याकुल र लज्‍जित हुनेछन् ।

Then shall they be afraid and ashamed on account of Ethiopia their trust, and of Egypt their glory.

6 यी समुद्री तटका बासिन्दाहरूले त्यस दिन भन्‍नेछन्, साच्‍चै, यो हाम्रो आशाको स्रोत थियो, जहा अश्शूरको राजाबाट बच्‍नलाई हामी भाग्यौं, र अब हामी कसरी उम्किन सक्‍छौं र?'”

The inhabitant of this coast shall say in that day, “Behold, so is it with them in whom we trusted, and to whom we fled for help, that we might be delivered from the king of Assyria. How then shall we escape?”
