Isaiah 58
1
“Cry aloud! Don’t spare!
2
Yet they seek me daily,
3
‘Why have we fasted,’ they say, ‘and you don’t see?
4
Behold, you fast for strife and contention,
5
Is this the fast that I have chosen?
6
“Isn’t this the fast that I have chosen:
7
Isn’t it to distribute your bread to the hungry,
8
Then your light will break out as the morning,
9
Then you will call, and the LORD will answer.
10
and if you pour out your soul to the hungry,
11
and the LORD will guide you continually,
12
Those who will be of you will build the old waste places.
13
“If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath,
14
then you will delight yourself in the LORD,
