Isaiah 20:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 So shall the king of Assyria take away the captivity of Egypt, and the captivity of Ethiopia, both young men and old men, naked and barefoot, with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.
5 And they shall fear, and be ashamed of [a]Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their [b]glory.
6 Then shall the inhabitants of this [c]isle say in that day, Behold, such is our expectation, whither we fled for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria, and how shall we be delivered?
