Esias 20

1 In the year when Tanathan came to Azotus, when he was sent by Arna king of the Assyrians, and warred against Azotus, and took it;

Sa te pase nan lanne Sagon, wa peyi Lasiri, te bay kòmandan chèf lame li a lòd pou l' te al atake lavil Asdòd nan peyi moun Filisti yo. Epi li pran l'.

2 then the Lord spoke to Esaias the son of Amos, saying, Go and take the sackcloth off your loins, and loose your sandals from off your feet, and do thus, going naked and barefoot.

Men anvan sa, Seyè a te pale ak Ezayi, pitit Amòz la. Li te di l': Wete rad sak kòlèt ki sou ou a ak sapat ki nan pye ou la. Se sa menm Ezayi te fè. Se konsa li t'ap mache toutouni pye atè nan lari.

3 And the Lord said, As my servant Esaias has walked naked and barefoot three years, there shall be three years for signs and wonders to the Egyptians and Ethiopians;

Lanne yo te pran lavil Asdòd la, Seyè a di konsa: -Ezayi, sèvitè m' lan, te rete toutouni pye atè pandan twazan. Sa se yon siy ak yon avètisman pou sa ki pral rive peyi Lejip ak peyi Letiopi.

4 for thus shall the king of the Assyrians lead the captivity of Egypt and the Ethiopians, young men and old, naked and barefoot, having the shame of Egypt exposed.

Wa peyi Lasiri a pral depòte tout prizonye li pral fè nan peyi Lejip ak nan peyi Letiopi. Granmoun kou timoun pral mache toutouni, pye atè ak tout dèyè yo deyò. Sa pral yon wont pou peyi Lejip.

5 And the Egyptians being defeated shall be ashamed of the Ethiopians, in whom they had trusted; for they were their glory.

Moun ki te konte sou peyi Letiopi ak moun ki t'ap fè lwanj peyi Lejip yo pral wont, yo pral dekouraje.

6 And they that dwell in this island shall say in that day, Behold, we trusted to flee to them for help, who could not save themselves from the king of the Assyrians: and how shall we be saved?

Lè jou sa a va rive, moun ki rete sou rivaj peyi Filisti a va di: Gade sa ki rive moun sa yo! Epi se sou yo nou te konte, se lakay yo nou te fè lide al chache pwoteksyon pou yo te ka sove nou anba men wa peyi Lasiri a! Koulye a, kote n'ap bay tèt pou n' chape kò nou?
