28:22 So now, do not mock,
or your chains will become heavier!
For I have heard a message about decreed destruction,
from the sovereign master, the Lord who commands armies, against the entire land. 1
58:6 No, this is the kind of fast I want. 2
I want you 3 to remove the sinful chains,
to tear away the ropes of the burdensome yoke,
to set free the oppressed, 4
and to break every burdensome yoke.
