Isaija 20

1 Godine koje doðe Tartan na Azot, kad ga posla Sargon car Asirski, te bi Azot i uze ga,

In the year in which Tharthan entered into Ashdod, when Sargon, the king of the Assyrians, had sent him, and when he had fought against Ashdod and had captured it,

2 U to vrijeme reèe Gospod preko Isaije sina Amosova govoreæi: idi, skini kostrijet sa sebe, i izuj obuæu s nogu svojih. I uèini tako i iðaše go i bos.

in that same time, the Lord spoke by the hand of Isaiah, the son of Amoz, saying: “Go forth, and remove the sackcloth from your waist, and take your shoes from your feet.” And he did so, going out naked and barefoot.

3 Tada reèe Gospod: kako ide sluga moj Isaija go i bos za znak i èudo što æe biti do tri godine Misiru i Etiopskoj,

And the Lord said: Just as my servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot, as a sign and as a portent of three years over Egypt and over Ethiopia,

4 Tako æe odvesti car Asirski u ropstvo Misirce, i Etiopljane u sužanjstvo, djecu i starce, gole i bose i golijeh zadnjica, na sramotu Misircima.

so also will the king of the Assyrians force the captivity of Egypt, and the transmigration of Ethiopia: young and old, naked and barefoot, with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.

5 I prepašæe se i posramiæe se od Etiopske, uzdanice svoje, i od Misira, ponosa svojega.

And they will be afraid and confounded over Ethiopia, their hope, and Egypt, their glory.

6 I reæi æe tada koji žive na ovom ostrvu: gle, to je uzdanica naša, ka kojoj pritjecasmo za pomoæ da se saèuvamo od cara Asirskoga; kako æemo se izbaviti?

And in that day, the inhabitants of a certain island will say: “Behold, this was our hope, we fled to them for help, to free us from the face of the king of the Assyrians. And now, how will we be able to escape?”
