Isaiah 20

Tamin'ny taona nankanesan'i Tartana tany Asdoda, raha nirahin'i Sargona, mpanjakan'i Asyria, izy ka namely an'i Asdoda ary nahafaka azy,

In the year that Tartan came unto Ashdod, (when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him,) and fought against Ashdod, and took it;

tamin'izany andro izany no nampitondran'i Jehovah teny an'Isaia, zanak'i Amoza, hoe: Andeha, borahy ny lamba fisaonana ho afaka amin'ny valahanao, ary esory ny kiraronao hiala amin'ny tongotrao. Dia nanao izany izy ka nandeha tsy nitafy sady tsy nikiraro.

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.

Ary hoy Jehovah: Tahaka ny nandehanan'Isaia mpanompoko telo taona sady tsy nitafy no tsy nikiraro mba ho famantarana sy ho fahagagana ny amin'i Egypta sy Etiopia,

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;

dia ho toy izany no hitondran'ny mpanjakan'i Asyria ny Egyptiana ho babo sy ny Etiopiana ho sambotra, na tanora na antitra, samy tsy hitafy sady tsy hikiraro no tsy hisarom-pe, ho henatr'i Egypta.

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.

Ary ho raiki-tahotra sy ho menatra ny Isiraely noho ny amin'i Etiopia fanantenany sy Egypta reharehany.

And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

Ary amin'izany andro izany ny mponina etỳ amoron-dranomasina dia hanao hoe: He! ity manjo ilay nantenaintsika sady nandosirantsika ho famonjena antsika ho afaka amin'ny mpanjakan'i Asyria! Aiza intsony re no handosirantsika?

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?
