Ezk 23:18, 23:28-30
The story of two "adulterous" sisters, Oholah and Oholibah that had given themselves up to prostitution with men of every nation as a metephore of Israel's "prostituting" itself to other nations. "Nakedness" refers to the sin of embracing false gods and pagan rituals.

Isa 20:4
This is not "willfull nakedness" (the point of this thread) but the result of being forcibly "stripped naked", exposed to the wrath of the capturing nation, as was common then aned even now. (I can refer to the recent terrorist invasion of the Russian School, Vietnam POW's, German concentration camps as an examples).

Ex 20:26

Dt 20:48

2 Chr 28:15

Job 24:7-10

Lam 1:8

Lam 4:21

Isa 47:2-3, 57:7-8, 58; Ezk 16:35-37; Mic 1:11
There are those occasions when the words are used in the context of God's judgment on Israel (e.g. Is 47:3;Ez 16:36-37, 23:8-10;Mic 1:11) It was customary for captives to be paraded naked by their enemies, and slaves were also presented for sale naked. In such a context nakedness was shameful in that it was associated with defeat and humiliation. To transfer shame to all nakedness from those verses is unjustified.

Refers to God lifting His hand of protection from Israel.

Verse 2 instructs them to prepare to travel for they will be taken captive and forcibly "stripped" of their defenses and their honor among nations.

From Geneva Study Bible...
"You will be brought to most vile servitude: for to turn the mill was the office of slaves.
The things in which she sets her greatest pride, will be made vile, even from the head to the foot.
I will use no humanity nor pity toward you."

Nah 3:5
In Nah 3:5 we read "I am against you," declares the LORD Almighty. "I will lift your skirts over your face. I will show the nations your nakedness and the kingdoms your shame". Israel's practice of engaging in the religions of its surrounding cultures was often referred to by the prophets as being adulterous. In the above verse Micah graphically portrays Israel's spiritual adultery by likening it to the behaviour of a soliciting prostitute. I doubt whether modern preachers would use such explicit imagery.

Job 26:6
In Job 26:6 nakedness is referred to as being open, transparent. "Death is naked before God; Destruction lies Again, God has lifted His hand of protection form Israel leaving them exposed ("naked") to the wrathful hands of other nations.

Isa 58:7
"Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter - when you see the naked , to clothe him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?"
This verse from Isaiah reflects a common biblical theme, of caring for the less fortunate. It is reasonable to assist the poor with food, shelter and clothing. In such a context nakedness is associated with poverty. Some people lacked clothing for warmth and protection from the elements, the basic reason we are a clothed society today. Revelation 3:17 refers to spiritual poverty in a similar way.

Micah 1:11
Again, God has lifted His hand of protection form Israel leaving them exposed ("naked") to the wrathful hands of other nations.
(Misused metaphore and irrelevant to the discussion)

Revelation 16:15
This is saying "Be prepared. Get your affairs in order NOW. Accept the covering of righteousness afforded by Christ Jesus' death on the cross this very moment, because the Lord could return at any time, like a thief in the night. If we have not yet accepted Jesus' salvation, we are exposed ("naked), God can see ALL of our sins (our "shame"), therefore we cannot hide from His eternal wrath, as He is Right and Just to punish us."
