Isaiah 20

20
1In the year that Tartan [general] came unto Ashdod [powerful], (when Sargon [prince of the sun] the king of Ashur [the level plain] (the land of the sons of Shem (name, renown (great reputation; being well-known))) sent him,) and fought against Ashdod [powerful], and took it;
2At the same time spoke the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) by Yesha’yahu [Yehovah has saved] the son of Amotz [strong], saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off youri waist, and put off youri shoe from youri foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.
3And the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) said, Like as my servant Yesha’yahu [Yehovah has saved] has walked naked and barefoot three years [for] a sign and wonder upon Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place] and upon Ethiopia [Kush];
4So shall the king of Ashur [the level plain] (the land of the sons of Shem (name, renown (great reputation; being well-known))) lead away the Mitzri prisoners, and the Ethiopians captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, even with [their] buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place].
5And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia [Kush] their expectation, and of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place] their glory.
6And the inhabitant of this isle shall say in that day, Behold, such [is] our expectation, to which we flee for help to be delivered from the king of Ashur [the level plain] (the land of the sons of Shem (name, renown (great reputation; being well-known))): and how shall we escape?
