Isaiah 20:3-6

New American Standard Bible 1995

³ And the Lord said, “Even as My servant Isaiah has gone naked and barefoot three years as a ^[a](A)sign and token against Egypt and ^[b](B)Cush, ⁴ so the ^(C)king of Assyria will lead away the captives of Egypt and the exiles of Cush, ^(D)young and old, naked and barefoot with buttocks uncovered, to the ^[c]shame of Egypt. ⁵ Then they will be ^(E)dismayed and ashamed because of Cush their hope and Egypt their ^(F)boast. ⁶ So the inhabitants of this coastland will say in that day, ‘Behold, such is our hope, where we fled ^(G)for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria; and we, ^(H)how shall we escape?’”
