Isaiah 20:2-4

2 the Lord told Isaiah son of Amoz, "Take off the burlap you have been wearing, and remove your sandals." Isaiah did as he was told and walked around naked and barefoot.

3 Then the Lord said, "My servant Isaiah has been walking around naked and barefoot for the last three years. This is a sign-a symbol of the terrible troubles I will bring upon Egypt and Ethiopia.[a] 4 For the king of Assyria will take away the Egyptians and Ethiopians[b] as prisoners. He will make them walk naked and barefoot, both young and old, their buttocks bared, to the shame of Egypt.

As a side note, you also may find this interesting. Technically although he was never considered a prophet, King Saul being filled with the spirit also prophesied sans clothing:

1 Samuel 19:23-24 So [Saul] went there to Naioth in Ramah. Then the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on and prophesied until he came to Naioth in Ramah. And he also stripped off his clothes and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"

Answer:

Reading the Hebrew Bible without the benefit of tradition has led to unfortunate errors. Tradition states that no prophet ever went around naked. Isaiah removed his normal clothing and went around in rags, not naked (Talmud, Yoma 77a). Similarly with Saul, he removed his royal clothes and wore simple garments (Rashi commentary, 1 Samuel ch.19). He was "naked" of royalty.

It's in Isaiah, chapter 20, verses 1-3 "In the year that the commander came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him and he fought against Ashdod and captured it, at that time the LORD spoke through Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, "Go and loosen the sackcloth from your hips and take your shoes off your feet " And he did so, going naked and barefoot. And the LORD said, "Even as My servant Isaiah has gone naked and barefoot three years as a sign and token against Egypt and Cush."

(Isaiah 20:1-6) 20 In the year that Tar′tan came to Ash′dod, when Sar′gon the king of As·syr′i·a sent him, and he proceeded to war against Ash′dod and to capture it; 2 at that time Jehovah spoke by the hand of Isaiah the son of A′moz, saying: "Go, and you must loosen the sackcloth from off your hips; and your sandals you should draw from off your feet." And he proceeded to do so, walking about naked and barefoot. 3 And Jehovah went on to say: "Just as my servant Isaiah has walked about naked and barefoot three years as a sign and a portent against Egypt and against E·thi·o′pi·a, 4 so the king of As·syr′i·a will lead the body of captives of Egypt and the exiles of E·thi·o′pi·a, boys and old men, naked and barefoot, and with buttocks stripped, the nakedness of Egypt. 5 And they will certainly be terrified and be ashamed of E·thi·o′pi·a their looked-for hope and of Egypt their beauty. 6 And the inhabitant of this coastland will be certain to say in that day, 'There is how our looked-for hope is, to which we fled for assistance, in order to be delivered because of the king of As·syr′i·a! And how shall we ourselves escape?'"

Yes! And it was shameful and disgusting! Why would a holy God ask him to do this? Oh sure, the pat answer is.."he was only partially naked.". Tell that to the people who saw him!
