Isaiah 20:3-5

Expanded Bible

³ Then the Lord said, “[^LJust as] Isaiah my servant has walked around naked and barefoot for three years as a ·sign [^Lsign and omen/portent] against Egypt and Cush [18:1]. ⁴ [^LSo; Thus] The king of Assyria will carry away prisoners from Egypt and ·captives [exiles] from Cush. Old people and young people will be led away ·naked [stripped] and barefoot, with their buttocks bare. So the Egyptians will be shamed. ⁵ People who ·looked to Cush for help [trusted/put hope in Cush] will be ·afraid [dismayed; disillusioned], and those who ·were amazed by [boasted/took pride in] Egypt’s glory will be shamed.
