Isaiah 20:3-5
Lexham English Bible
3 Then[a] Yahweh said, “Just as my servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot three years as a sign and a portent against Egypt and Cush, 4 so shall the king of Assyria lead the captives[b] of Egypt and the exiles of Cush, young and old, naked and barefoot, with bared buttocks,[c] the shame of Egypt.
5 And they shall be dismayed,
and they shall be ashamed
because of Cush, their hope,
and because of Egypt, their pride.
