Prophecy about Egypt and Ethiopia

1 In the year° that the Iacommander° came° to bAshdod°, when Sargon° the king° of Assyria° sent° him and he fought° against Ashdod° and captured° it, 2 at that time° the LORD° spoke° through° aIsaiah° the son° of Amoz°, saying°, “Go° and loosen° the bsackcloth° from your hips° and take° your cshoes° off° your feet°.” And he did° so°, going° dnaked° and barefoot°. 3 And the LORD° said°, “Even° as My servant° Isaiah° has gone° naked° and barefoot° three° years° as a Iasign° and token° against° Egypt° and IIbCush°, 4 so° the aking° of Assyria° will lead° away° the captives° of Egypt° and the exiles° of Cush°, byoung° and old°, naked° and barefoot° with buttocks° uncovered°, to the Ishame° of Egypt°. 5 Then they will be adismayed° and ashamed° because° of Cush° their hope° and Egypt° their bboast°. 6 So the inhabitants° of this° coastland° will say° in that day°, ‘Behold°, such° is our hope°, where°° we fled° afor help° to be delivered° from the king° of Assyria°; and we, bhow° shall we escape°?’”

A type prefiguring the shameful captivity of Egypt and Ethiopia.

1 ¶ In the yearº that Tartanº cameºª unto Ashdod,º (when Sargonº the kingº of Assyriaº sentºª him,) and foughtºª against Ashdod,º and tookºª it; 2 At the same² timeº spakeºª the LORDº byº Isaiahº the sonº of Amoz,º saying,ºª Go¹ª² and looseºª the sackclothº from off²² thy loins,º and put offºª thy shoeº from²² thy foot.º And he did² so,¹ª² walkingºª nakedº and barefoot.º 3 And the LORDº said,ºª Like as² my servantº Isaiahº hath walkedºª nakedº and barefootº threeº yearsº [for] a signº and wonderº upon² Egyptº and upon² Ethiopia;º 4 So² shall the kingº of Assyriaº lead awayºª² the Egyptiansº prisoners,º and the Ethiopiansº captives,º youngº and old,º nakedº and barefoot,º even with [their] buttocksº uncovered,ºª to the shameº of Egypt.º 5 And they shall be afraidºª and ashamedºª of Ethiopiaº² their expectation,º and of² Egyptº their glory.º 6 And the inhabitantºª of this² isleº shall sayºª in that² day,º Behold,² suchº [is] our expectation,º whither²² we fleeºª for helpº to be deliveredºª fromº² the kingº of Assyria:º and how² shall we² escape?ºª
