Isaiah

20

1In the year that Tartan came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and took it;
1 Jiiro kaŋ Assiriya wonkoyo kaa Asdod, saaya kaŋ Assiriya bonkoono Sargon n'a donton, a na Asdod wongu k'a ŋwa.
2at that time Yahweh spoke by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, “Go, and loosen the sackcloth from off your waist, and take your shoes from off your feet.” He did so, walking naked and barefoot.
2 Alwaati woodin ra no Rabbi salaŋ Isaya Amoz ize me ra ka ne: «Ma koy ka bufu zaara feeri ka kaa ni canta gaa, ma ni taamey mo foobu ka kaa ni cey gaa.» Nga mo te yaadin. A go ga dira kwaay si, taamu mo si.
3Yahweh said, “As my servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and a wonder concerning Egypt and concerning Ethiopia,
3 Rabbi ye ka ne: «Sanda mate kaŋ cine ay tamo Isaya te, jiiri hinza a go ga bar-bare kwaay si, taamu mo si cey gaa, zama nga ma ciya alaama nda dambara hari Misira nda Etiyopi boŋ,
4so the king of Assyria will lead away the captives of Egypt and the exiles of Ethiopia, young and old, naked and barefoot, and with buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.
4 yaadin cine no Assiriya bonkoono ga dira nda borey kaŋ yaŋ a di Misira ra, ngey nda Etiyopi waney kaŋ zuru. Arwasey da dottijo zeeney ga dira kwaay si, taamu si, hala nda i banda furay go taray, Misira haawi nooya.
5They will be dismayed and confounded, because of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.
5 I ga sukurutu, haawi m'i di mo ngey deyaŋ haro Etiyopi d'i darza haro Misira sabbay se.
6The inhabitants of this coast land will say in that day, ‘Behold, this is our expectation, where we fled for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria. And we, how will we escape?’”
6 Zaari woodin ra binde laabo din caso gorokoy ga ne: ‹Guna mate kaŋ cine iri deyaŋ haro bara nd'a, nango din kaŋ iri zuru ka koy ka gaakasinay ceeci, iri ma du ka faaba Assiriya bonkoono kambe ra se. To, iri binde, mate iri ga te ka yana?› »
