Comentario sobre Isaías 20:4
כֵּ֣ן יִנְהַ֣ג מֶֽלֶךְ־אַ֠שּׁוּר אֶת־שְׁבִ֨י מִצְרַ֜יִם וְאֶת־גָּל֥וּת כּ֛וּשׁ נְעָרִ֥ים וּזְקֵנִ֖ים עָר֣וֹם וְיָחֵ֑ף וַחֲשׂוּפַ֥י שֵׁ֖ת עֶרְוַ֥ת מִצְרָֽיִם׃
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.
