Isaiah 58:7

Context

58:7 I want you 1  to share your food with the hungry

and to provide shelter for homeless, oppressed people. 2 

When you see someone naked, clothe him!

Don’t turn your back on your own flesh and blood! 3 

1 tn Heb “Is it not?” The rhetorical question here expects a positive answer, “It is!”

2 tn Heb “and afflicted [ones], homeless [ones] you should bring [into] a house.” On the meaning of מְרוּדִים (mÿrudim, “homeless”) see HALOT 633 s.v. *מָרוּד.

3 tn Heb “and from your flesh do not hide yourself.”
