1 En el año en que Sargón, rey de Asiria, envió a su comandante del ejército a atacar la ciudad de Asdod y la conquistó, 2 en ese momento el Señor habló por medio de Isaías, hijo de Amoz. Le dijo: “Quítate la ropa de saco de tu cuerpo y quítate las sandalias”. Isaías así lo hizo y anduvo desnudo y descalzo. 3 Entonces el Señor dijo: “De la misma manera que mi siervo Isaías ha andado desnudo y descalzo durante tres años como señal y advertencia contra Egipto y Etiopía, 4 así el rey de Asiria conducirá a los prisioneros egipcios y a los exiliados etíopes, jóvenes y viejos, desnudos y descalzos. Sus nalgas estarán desnudas, para vergüenza de Egipto. 5 Ellos serán desanimados y humillados porque habían puesto su esperanza en Etiopía y confiaban orgullosamente en Egipto. 6 En ese momento la gente que vive en las tierras costeras dirán: ‘¡Mira lo que ha sucedido a aquellos de los que dependíamos! Corrimos hacia ellos en busca de ayuda para salvarnos del rey de Asiria. No tenemos ninguna posibilidad!’”

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.
