Isaiah 20:3 in Context — Isaiah 20

1 L’année où Tharthan, envoyé par Sargon, roi d’Assyrie, vint assiéger Asdod et s’en empara,

2 en ce temps-là l’Éternel adressa la parole à Ésaïe, fils d’Amots, et lui dit: Va, détache le sac de tes reins et ôte tes souliers de tes pieds. Il fit ainsi, marcha nu et déchaussé.

3 Et l’Éternel dit: De même que mon serviteur Ésaïe marche nu et déchaussé, ce qui sera dans trois ans un signe et un présage pour l’Égypte et pour l’Éthiopie,

4 de même le roi d’Assyrie emmènera de l’Égypte et de l’Éthiopie captifs et exilés les jeunes hommes et les vieillards, nus et déchaussés, et le dos découvert, à la honte de l’Égypte.

5 Alors on sera dans l’effroi et dans la confusion, à cause de l’Éthiopie en qui l’on avait mis sa confiance, et de l’Égypte dont on se glorifiait.
