Dual Panel1The Lord revealed <0935> the following message during the year <08141> in which King <04428> Sargon <05623> of Assyria <0804> sent <07971> his commanding general <08661> to Ashdod <0795> <0795>, and he fought <03898> against it and captured <03920> it.
2At that <01931> time <06256> the Lord <03069> announced <01696> through <03027> Isaiah <03470> son <01121> of Amoz <0531>: “Go <01980>, remove <06605> the sackcloth <08242> from <05921> your waist <04975> and take <02502> your sandals <05275> off <02502> your feet <07272>.” He did <06213> as <03651> instructed and walked <01980> around in undergarments <06174> and barefoot <03182>.
3Later the Lord <03068> explained <0559>, “In the same way that <0834> my servant <05650> Isaiah <03470> has walked around <01980> in undergarments <06174> and barefoot <03182> for the past three <07969> years <08141>, as an object lesson <0226> and omen <04159> pertaining <05921> to Egypt <04714> and Cush <03568>,
4so <03651> the king <04428> of Assyria <0804> will lead away <05090> the captives <07628> of Egypt <04714> and the exiles <01546> of Cush <03568>, both young <05288> and old <02205>. They will be in undergarments <06174> and barefoot <03182>, with the buttocks <08357> exposed <02834>; the Egyptians <04714> will be publicly humiliated <06172>.
5Those who put their hope <04007> in Cush <03568> and took pride <08597> in Egypt <04714> will be afraid <02865> and embarrassed <0954>.
6At that time <03117> those <01931> who live <03427> on this <02088> coast <0339> will say <0559>, ‘Look <02009> what has happened <03541> to our source of hope <04007> to whom <0834> we fled <05127> for help <05833>, expecting to be rescued <05337> from <06440> the king <04428> of Assyria <0804>! How <0349> can we <0587> escape <04422> now?’”
