1 EN el año que vino Thartán á Asdod, cuando le envió Sargón rey de Asiria, y peleó contra Asdod y la tomó; 2 En aquel tiempo habló Jehová por Isaías hijo de Amoz, diciendo: Ve, y quita el saco de tus lomos, y descalza los zapatos de tus pies. E hízolo así, andando desnudo y descalzo. 3 Y dijo Jehová: De la manera que anduvo mi siervo Isaías desnudo y descalzo tres años, señal y pronóstico sobre Egipto y sobre Etiopía; 4 Así llevará el rey de Asiria la cautividad de Egipto y la transmigración de Etiopía, de mozos y de viejos, desnuda y descalza, y descubiertas las nalgas para vergüenza de Egipto. 5 Y se turbarán y avergonzarán de Etiopía su esperanza, y de Egipto su gloria. 6 Y dirá en aquel día el morador de esta isla: Mirad qué tal fué nuestra esperanza, donde nos acogimos por socorro para ser libres de la presencia del rey de Asiria: ¿y cómo escaparemos?

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Since Adam too was "naked" in paradise, "and was not ashamed;" and Isaiah was "naked, and barefoot," and more glorious than all the Jews; and Joseph also, when he stripped himself, did then more than ever shine forth.
