◄ ISA 58 ► ║ ═ ©

58 “Call out in the throat; do not refrain.

Raise your voice like a shofar,

and declare to my people their transgression,

and to the house of Jacob, their sins.

2 Yet day, day they seek me,

and they delight in the knowledge of my ways,

like a nation that has done righteousness

and has not abandoned the judgment of its God.

They ask me for judgments of righteousness;

they delight in the approach of God.

3 ‘Why have we fasted, but you have not seen,

have we humbled our soul, but you have not known?’

Behold, on the day of your fast, you find pleasure,

and you oppress all of your laborers.

4 Behold, you fast for contention and quarrel,

and to strike with a fist of wickedness.

You shall not fast as today

to make one hear your voice in the height!

5 Is the fast, I choose it, like this,

a day of a man humbling his soul,

to bow his head like a reed,

and to spread sackcloth and ashes?

Do you call this a fast

and a day of acceptance to Yahweh?

6 Is not this the fast, I choose it:

to loose the bonds of wickedness,

to undo the ropes of the yoke,

and to send the crushed ones free,

and you shall break every yoke?

7 Is it not to divide your bread to the hungry,

and you shall bring the wandering poor into your house?

When you see the naked, then you shall cover him,

and you shall not hide yourself from your flesh.

8 Then your light will break forth like the dawn,

and your healing will sprout up quickly.

And your righteousness will go to your face;

the glory of Yahweh will assemble you.

9 Then you will call, and Yahweh will answer;

you will cry out, and he will say, ‘Behold me.’

If you remove the yoke from your midst,

the putting forth of the finger and the speaking of iniquity,

10 and you bring out your soul to the hungry

and you satisfy the soul of the poor,

then your light will rise in the darkness,

and your gloom will be like noon.

11 And Yahweh will lead you continually,

and he will satisfy your soul in dry places,

and he will strengthen your bones,

and you will be like a watered garden

and like a spring of water

whose waters do not deceive.

12 And some from you will build the desolations of eternity;

you will raise up the foundations of generation and generation,

and one will call you Repairer of the Breach,

Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.

13 If you turn back your foot from the Sabbath,

from doing your pleasures on the day of my holiness,

and you call the Sabbath a delight,

the holy of Yahweh, honored,

and you honor it from doing your ways,

from finding your pleasure and speaking a word,

14 then you will delight yourself over Yahweh,

and I will make you ride on the heights of the earth,

and I will feed you the inheritance of Jacob your father,”

for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken.
