in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to Yahweh because
of oppressors, and he will send them a savior and a defender,
and he will deliver them.
019:021 Yahweh will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know Yahweh
in that day. Yes, they will worship with sacrifice and offering,
and will vow a vow to Yahweh, and will perform it.
019:022 Yahweh will strike Egypt, striking and healing.
They will return to Yahweh, and he will be entreated by them,
and will heal them.
019:023 In that day there will be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria,
and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian
into Assyria; and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
019:024 In that day, Israel will be the third with Egypt and with Assyria,
a blessing in the midst of the earth;
019:025 because Yahweh of Armies has blessed them, saying,
"Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria the work of my hands,
and Israel my inheritance."
020:001 In the year that Tartan came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king
of Assyria sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and took it;
020:002 at 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.
020:003 Yahweh said, "As my servant Isaiah has walked naked and
barefoot three years for a sign and a wonder concerning Egypt
and concerning Ethiopia,
020:004 so 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.
020:005 They will be dismayed and confounded, because of Ethiopia
their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.
020:006 The 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?'"
021:001 The burden of the wilderness of the sea. As whirlwinds
in the South sweep through, it comes from the wilderness,
from an awesome land.
021:002 A grievous vision is declared to me. The treacherous
man deals treacherously, and the destroyer destroys.
Go up, Elam; attack! I have stopped all of Media's sighing.
021:003 Therefore my thighs are filled with anguish. Pains have
taken hold on me, like the pains of a woman in labor.
I am in so much pain that I can't hear. I so am dismayed
that I can't see.
021:004 My heart flutters. Horror has frightened me. The twilight
that I desired has been turned into trembling for me.
021:005 They prepare the table. They set the watch. They eat.
They drink. Rise up, you princes, oil the shield!
021:006 For the Lord said to me, "Go, set a watchman. Let him declare
what he sees.
