Isaiah 58:1-14

Cry
<07121> (8798)
aloud
<01627>_,
spare
<02820> (8799)
not, lift
<07311> (8685)
up thy voice
<06963>
like a trumpet
<07782>_,
and shew
<05046> (8685)
my people
<05971>
their transgression
<06588>_,
and the house
<01004>
of Jacob
<03290>
their sins
<02403>_.
{aloud: Heb. with the throat}
Yet they seek
<01875> (8799)
me daily
<03117> <03117>_,
and delight
<02654> (8799)
to know
<01847>
my ways
<01870>_,
as a nation
<01471>
that did
<06213> (8804)
righteousness
<06666>_,
and forsook
<05800> (8804)
not the ordinance
<04941>
of their God
<0430>_:
they ask
<07592> (8799)
of me the ordinances
<04941>
of justice
<06664>_;
they take delight
<02654> (8799)
in approaching
<07132>
to God
<0430>_.
Wherefore have we fasted
<06684> (8804)_,
[say they], and thou seest
<07200> (8804)
not? [wherefore] have we afflicted
<06031> (8765)
our soul
<05315>_,
and thou takest no knowledge
<03045> (8799)_?
Behold, in the day
<03117>
of your fast
<06685>
ye find
<04672> (8799)
pleasure
<02656>_,
and exact
<05065> (8799)
all your labours
<06092>_.
{labours: or, things wherewith ye grieve others: Heb. griefs}
Behold, ye fast
<06684> (8799)
for strife
<07379>
and debate
<04683>_,
and to smite
<05221> (8687)
with the fist
<0106>
of wickedness
<07562>_:
ye shall not fast
<06684> (8799)
as [ye do this] day
<03117>_,
to make your voice
<06963>
to be heard
<08085> (8687)
on high
<04791>_.
{ye shall...: or, ye fast not as this day}
Is it such a fast
<06685>
that I have chosen
<0977> (8799)_?
a day
<03117>
for a man
<0120>
to afflict
<06031> (8763)
his soul
<05315>_?
[is it] to bow down
<03721> (8800)
his head
<07218>
as a bulrush
<0100>_,
and to spread
<03331> (8686)
sackcloth
<08242>
and ashes
<0665>
[under him]? wilt thou call
<07121> (8799)
this
<02088>
a fast
<06685>_,
and an acceptable
<07522>
day
<03117>
to the LORD
<03068>_?
{a day...: or, to afflict his soul for a day?}
[Is] not this the fast
<06685>
that I have chosen
<0977> (8799)_?
to loose
<06605> (8763)
the bands
<02784>
of wickedness
<07562>_,
to undo
<05425> (8687)
the heavy
<04133>
burdens
<092>_,
and to let the oppressed
<07533> (8803)
go
<07971> (8763)
free
<02670>_,
and that ye break
<05423> (8762)
every yoke
<04133>_?
{the heavy...: Heb. the bundles of the yoke} {oppressed: Heb. broken}
[Is it] not to deal
<06536> (8800)
thy bread
<03899>
to the hungry
<07457>_,
and that thou bring
<0935> (8686)
the poor
<06041>
that are cast out
<04788>
to thy house
<01004>_?
when thou seest
<07200> (8799)
the naked
<06174>_,
that thou cover
<03680> (8765)
him; and that thou hide
<05956> (8691)
not thyself from thine own flesh
<01320>_?
{cast...: or, afflicted}
Then shall thy light
<0216>
break forth
<01234> (8735)
as the morning
<07837>_,
and thine health
<0724>
shall spring forth
<06779> (8799)
speedily
<04120>_:
and thy righteousness
<06664>
shall go
<01980> (8804)
before
<06440>
thee; the glory
<03519>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall be thy rereward
<0622> (8799)_.
{be...: Heb. gather thee up}
Then shalt thou call
<07121> (8799)_,
and the LORD
<03068>
shall answer
<06030> (8799)_;
thou shalt cry
<07768> (8762)_,
and he shall say
<0559> (8799)_,
Here I [am]. If thou take away
<05493> (8686)
from the midst
<08432>
of thee the yoke
<04133>_,
the putting forth
<07971> (8800)
of the finger
<0676>_,
and speaking
<01696> (8763)
vanity
<0205>_;
And [if] thou draw out
<06329> (8686)
thy soul
<05315>
to the hungry
<07457>_,
and satisfy
<07646> (8686)
the afflicted
<06031> (8737)
soul
<05315>_;
then shall thy light
<0216>
rise
<02224> (8804)
in obscurity
<02822>_,
and thy darkness
<0653>
[be] as the noonday
<06672>_:
And the LORD
<03068>
shall guide
<05148> (8804)
thee continually
<08548>_,
and satisfy
<07646> (8689)
thy soul
<05315>
in drought
<06710>_,
and make fat
<02502> (8686)
thy bones
<06106>_:
and thou shalt be like a watered
<07302>
garden
<01588>_,
and like a spring
<04161>
of water
<04325>_,
whose waters
<04325>
fail
<03576> (8762)
not. {drought: Heb. droughts} {fail: Heb. lie, or, deceive}
And [they that shall be] of thee shall build
<01129> (8804)
the old
<05769>
waste places
<02723>_:
thou shalt raise up
<06965> (8787)
the foundations
<04146>
of many
<01755>
generations
<01755>_;
and thou shalt be called
<07121> (8795)_,
The repairer
<01443> (8802)
of the breach
<06556>_,
The restorer
<07725> (8789)
of paths
<05410>
to dwell in
<03427> (8800)_.
If thou turn away
<07725> (8686)
thy foot
<07272>
from the sabbath
<07676>_,
[from] doing
<06213> (8800)
thy pleasure
<02656>
on my holy
<06944>
day
<03117>_;
and call
<07121> (8804)
the sabbath
<07676>
a delight
<06027>_,
the holy
<06918>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
honourable
<03513> (8794)_;
and shalt honour
<03513> (8765)
him, not doing
<06213> (8800)
thine own ways
<01870>_,
nor finding
<04672> (8800)
thine own pleasure
<02656>_,
nor speaking
<01696> (8763)
[thine own] words
<01697>_:
Then shalt thou delight
<06026> (8691)
thyself in the LORD
<03068>_;
and I will cause thee to ride
<07392> (8689)
upon the high places
<01116>
of the earth
<0776>_,
and feed
<0398> (8689)
thee with the heritage
<05159>
of Jacob
<03290>
thy father
<01>_:
for the mouth
<06310>
of the LORD
<03068>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
[it].
