ULT ISA Chapter 20

◄ ISA 20 ► ║ ═ ©

20 In the year of the coming of the Tartan to Ashdod, when Sargon, the king of Assyria, sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and captured it,

2 at that time Yahweh spoke by the hand of Isaiah, the son of Amoz, saying, “Go, and you shall loosen the sackcloth from upon your waist, and you shall remove your sandal from upon your feet.” And he did thus, going naked and barefoot.

3 And Yahweh said, “Just as my servant Isaiah has gone naked and barefoot three years, as a sign and a wonder against Egypt and against Cush,

4 thus the king of Assyria will lead away the captivity of Egypt and the exile of Cush, young men and old, ones, naked and barefoot, and uncovered of buttock, the nakedness of Egypt.

5 And they will have dismay and have shame because of Cush, their hope, and because of Egypt, their glory.

6 And the dweller of this coastland will say in that day, ‘Behold, this, was our hope, where we fled there for help, to be delivered from the face of the king of Assyria! And we, how will we escape?’ ”
