Isaiah 58:6-11
Read Isaiah 58 in full →6“Is this not the fast which I choose,To aloosen the bonds of wickedness,To release the bands of 1the yoke,And to blet the oppressed go freeAnd cbreak every 2yoke?7“Is it not to adivide your bread 1with the hungryAnd bbring the afflicted homeless into the house;When you see the cnaked, you cover him;And not to dhide yourself from your own flesh?8“Then your alight will break out like the dawn,And your brecovery will speedily spring forth;And your crighteousness will go before you;The glory of dYahweh will be your rear guard.9“Then you will acall, and Yahweh will answer;You will cry, and He will say, ‘Here I am.’If you bremove the 1yoke from your midst,The 2,cpointing of the finger and dspeaking wickedness,10And if you 1,aoffer your soul to the hungryAnd satisfy the soul of the afflicted,Then your blight will rise in darknessAnd your thick darkness will become like midday.11“And aYahweh will continually guide you,And bsatisfy your soul in scorched places,And cfortify your bones;And you will be like a dwatered garden,And like a espring of water whose waters do not 1fail.
