Isaiah 20

NEW AMERICAN BIBLEVULGATA
1 In the year the general sent by Sargon, king of Assyria, fought against Ashdod and captured it,1 In anno quo ingressus est Thathan in Azotum, cum misisset eum Sargon, rex Assyriorum, et pugnasset contra Azotum, et cepisset eam :
2 the LORD gave a warning through Isaiah, the son of Amoz: Go and take off the sackcloth from your waist, and remove the sandals from your feet. This he did, walking naked and barefoot.2 in tempore illo locutus est Dominus in manu Isaiæ, filii Amos, dicens : Vade, et solve saccum de lumbis tuis, et calceamenta tua tolle de pedibus tuis. Et fecit sic, vadens nudus et discalceatus.
3 Then the LORD said: Just as my servant Isaiah has gone naked and barefoot for three years as a sign and portent against Egypt and Ethiopia,3 Et dixit Dominus : Sicut ambulavit servus meus Isaias nudus et discalceatus,
trium annorum signum et portentum erit
super Ægyptum et super Æthiopiam ;
4 so shall the king of Assyria lead away captives from Egypt, and exiles from Ethiopia, young and old, naked and barefoot, with buttocks uncovered (the shame of Egypt).4 sic minabit rex Assyriorum captivitatem Ægypti,
et transmigrationem Æthiopiæ,
juvenum et senum, nudam et discalceatam, discoopertis natibus, ad ignominiam Ægypti.
5 They shall be dismayed and ashamed because of Ethiopia, their hope, and because of Egypt, their boast.5 Et timebunt, et confundentur
ab Æthiopia spe sua,
et ab Ægypto gloria sua.
6 The inhabitants of this coastland shall say on that day, "Look at our hope! We have fled here for help and deliverance from the king of Assyria; where can we flee now?"6 Et dicet habitator insulæ hujus in die illa :
Ecce hæc erat spes nostra,
ad quos confugimus in auxilium, ut liberarent nos
a facie regis Assyriorum :
et quomodo effugere poterimus nos ?
