Isaiah 20:4-6
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
4 so shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians as captives and the Ethiopians[a] as exiles, both the young and the old, naked and barefoot, with buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt. 5 And they shall be dismayed and confounded because of Ethiopia[b] their hope and of Egypt their boast. 6 On that day the inhabitants of this coastland will say, “See, this is what has happened to those in whom we hoped and to whom we fled for help and deliverance from the king of Assyria! And we, how shall we escape?”’
