NOVA VULGATACATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 In anno quo ingressus est Tharthan in Azotum, cum misisset eum Sargonrex Assyriorum, et pugnasset contra Azotum et cepisset eam,1 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 in tempore illolocutus est Dominus in manu Isaiae filii Amos dicens: “ Vade et solve saccumde lumbis tuis et calceamenta tua tolle de pedibus tuis ”. Et fecit sic,vadens nudus et discalceatus.2 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 Et dixit Dominus: “ Sicut ambulavit servusmeus Isaias nudus et discalceatus tribus annis signum et portentum superAegyptum et super Aethiopiam,3 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 sic minabit rex Assyriorum captivos Aegypti etexsules Aethiopiae, iuvenes et senes, nudos et discalceatos, discoopertisnatibus ad ignominiam Aegypti.4 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 Et timebunt et confundentur ab Aethiopia spesua et ab Aegypto gloria sua.5 And they will be afraid and confounded over Ethiopia, their hope, and Egypt, their glory.
6 Et dicet habitator maritimae regionis huius indie illa: “Ecce, haec erat spes nostra, quo confugimus in auxilium, utliberaremur a facie regis Assyriorum; et quomodo effugere poterimus nos?” ”.
6 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?”
