ISA-58:1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet,
and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob
their sins.
ISA-58:2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as
a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance
of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they
take delight in approaching to God.
ISA-58:3 Wherefore have we fasted, [say they], and thou seest
not? [wherefore] have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no
knowledge? Behold, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, and
exact all your labours.
ISA-58:4 Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite
with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as [ye do this]
day, to make your voice to be heard on high.
ISA-58:5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man
to afflict his soul? [is it] to bow down his head as a bulrush,
and to spread sackcloth and ashes [under him]? wilt thou call
this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
ISA-58:6 [Is] not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the
bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the
oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?
ISA-58:7 [Is it] not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that
thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou
seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not
thyself from thine own flesh?
ISA-58:8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and
thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness
shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy
rereward.
ISA-58:9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou
shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I [am]. If thou take away from
the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and
speaking vanity;
ISA-58:10 And [if] thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and
satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in
obscurity, and thy darkness [be] as the noon day:
ISA-58:11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy
thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be
like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters
fail not.
ISA-58:12 And [they that shall be] of thee shall build the old
waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many
generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the
breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
ISA-58:13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, [from]
doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a
delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him,
not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor
speaking [thine own] words:
ISA-58:14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I
will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and
feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth
of the LORD hath spoken [it].
