Exegesis
The noun phrases mabbatam {מַבָּטָם | ma-bbā-ṭām} ‘their expectation’ and tifartam {תִּפְאַרְתָּם | ṭi-pʾar-tām} ‘their glory’ with pronominal suffixes link Israel’s trust to these powers. English word order shifts to subject–verb–object for clarity while preserving the Hebrew parallelism and the emphasis on Cush before Egypt.
In context — Isaiah 20:5
And they will be afraid and be ashamed of Cush, their expectation , and of Egypt, their glory .
