Isaiæ 20

VULGATAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 In anno quo ingressus est Thathan in Azotum, cum misisset eum Sargon, rex Assyriorum, et pugnasset contra Azotum, et cepisset eam :1 In the year that Tartan came unto Ashdod, (when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him,) and fought against Ashdod, and took it;
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.2 At the same time spake the LORD by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and put off thy shoe from thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.
3 Et dixit Dominus : Sicut ambulavit servus meus Isaias nudus et discalceatus,
trium annorum signum et portentum erit
super Ægyptum et super Æthiopiam ;
3 And the LORD said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia;
4 sic minabit rex Assyriorum captivitatem Ægypti,
et transmigrationem Æthiopiæ,
juvenum et senum, nudam et discalceatam, discoopertis natibus, ad ignominiam Ægypti.
4 So shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians prisoners, and the Ethiopians captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, even with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.
5 Et timebunt, et confundentur
ab Æthiopia spe sua,
et ab Ægypto gloria sua.
5 And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.
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 ?
6 And the inhabitant of this isle shall say in that day, Behold, such is our expectation, whither we flee for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria: and how shall we escape?
