1 In the year when King Sargon of Assyria sent his commander-in-chief to fight against Ashdod, he captured it. 2 At that time the LORD told Isaiah, son of Amoz, |Take off the sackcloth that you are wearing, and take off your sandals!| Isaiah did this and walked around barefoot and naked. 3 Then the LORD said, |My servant Isaiah has gone barefoot and naked for three years as a sign and as an omen to Egypt and Sudan. 4 The king of Assyria will lead away both the young and the old-captives from Egypt and exiles from Sudan. They will be barefoot and naked. Their buttocks will be exposed in order to disgrace Egypt. Isaiah 20:1-4, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
