20 And it shall be for a sign for ever to the Lord in the land of Egypt; for they shall cry unto the Lord because of them that oppress them, and the Lord shall send them a man, who shall save them: he shall judge and save them.

21 And the Lord shall be known to the Egyptians; and the Egyptians shall know the Lord in that day, and shall offer sacrifices and shall make vows to the Lord, and render them.

22 And the Lord shall smite the Egyptians with a great stroke, and heal them with a healing; and they shall turn unto the Lord, and he shall hear them, and shall heal them.

23 In that day shall there be a way from Egypt to the Assyrians, and the Assyrians shall enter into Egypt; and the Egyptians shall go unto the Assyrians, and the Egyptians shall serve the Assyrians.

24 In that day shall Israel be a third among the Assyrians and among the Egyptians, blessed in the land

25 Which the Lord of Hosts (hath) blessed, saying, Blessed is my people that is in Egypt and among the Assyrians, and. the land of mine inheritance, Israel.

3 And the, Lord said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot, three years there shall be signs and wonders to the Egyptians and Ethiopians.

4 For thus shall the king of the Assyrians lead away the captivity of Egypt and of the Ethiopians, young men and old men, naked and barefoot, uncovered, the shame of Egypt.

5 And the Egyptians shall be ashamed and discomfited concerning the Ethiopians, upon whom the Egyptians had trusted, who were their glory.

6 And they that dwell in this isle shall say, Behold, we had trusted to ﬂee unto them for help, who could not be saved from the king of the Assyrians; and how shall we be saved?
