Isaiah 58:1-2

Context
The Lord Desires Genuine Devotion

58:1 “Shout loudly! Don’t be quiet!

Yell as loud as a trumpet!

Confront my people with their rebellious deeds; 1 

confront Jacob’s family with their sin! 2 

58:2 They seek me day after day;

they want to know my requirements, 3 

like a nation that does what is right

and does not reject the law of their God.

They ask me for just decrees;

they want to be near God.

1 tn Heb “declare to my people their rebellion.”

2 tn Heb “and to the house of Jacob their sin.” The verb “declare” is understood by ellipsis (note the preceding line).

3 tn Heb “ways” (so KJV, NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, TEV); NLT “my laws.”
