Isaiah 20

Gen Z: Isaiah 20

1In the year Tartan rolled up on Ashdod, Sargon, the Assyrian king, sent him to throw down and take it.

2At the same time, the Lord hit up Isaiah, son of Amoz, saying, "Yo, take off that sackcloth and ditch your shoes." So he did, walking around all naked and barefoot, no cap.

3And the Lord was like, "Just like my dude Isaiah has been walking around naked and barefoot for three years, that’s a sign for Egypt and Ethiopia, fr."

4So, the king of Assyria is gonna lead the Egyptians away as prisoners, and the Ethiopians too, young and old, all naked and barefoot, just straight-up exposed, making Egypt look sus.

5They gonna be shook and embarrassed about Ethiopia being their hope, and Egypt being their glory.

6And the people on this island will say on that day, "Look at our expectations, where we run for help to get outta the grip of the king of Assyria: how we gonna bounce?"

KJV: Isaiah 20

1In the year that Tartan came unto Ashdod, (when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him,) and fought against Ashdod, and took it;

2At 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.

3And 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;

4So 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.

5And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

6And 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?
