Isaías 20:5 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 20:5

And they shall be afraid and ashamed
That is, those that trusted and depended upon the Egyptians and Ethiopians, particularly the Jews after mentioned, shall be "afraid" that it will be their turn next, that they also shall be taken and carried captive; and they shall be "ashamed" that they have put their trust and confidence in those nations, and not in the Lord: of Ethiopia their expectation;
from whom they expected assistance and protection, particularly when Tirhakah king of Ethiopia went out against the king of Assyria, that he would have been a match for him, and have overcome him, and so have freed them from such a powerful enemy: and of Egypt their glory;
who was their ally, and a very potent one, and in whom they gloried; but now should be ashamed, when both those people on whom they relied were carried captive.

Isaías 20:5 In-Context

3 Disse então o SENHOR: “Assim como o meu servo Isaías andou nu e descalço durante três anos, como sinal e advertência contra o Egito e contra a Etiópia,

4 assim também o rei da Assíria, para vergonha do Egito, levará nus e descalços os prisioneiros egípcios e os exilados etíopes, jovens e velhos, com as nádegas descobertas.

5 Os que confiavam na Etiópia e se vangloriavam no Egito terão medo e ficarão decepcionados.

6 Naquele dia, o povo que vive deste lado do mar dirá: ‘Vejam o que aconteceu com aqueles em quem confiávamos, a quem recorremos para nos ajudar e nos livrar do rei da Assíria! E agora? Como escaparemos?’ ”
