Isaiah 58:5-7
New King James Version
5 Is (A)it a fast that I have chosen,
(B)A day for a man to afflict his soul?
Is it to bow down his head like a bulrush,
And (C)to spread out sackcloth and ashes?
Would you call this a fast,
And an acceptable day to the Lord?
6 “Is this not the fast that I have chosen:
To (D)loose the bonds of wickedness,
(E)To undo the [a]heavy burdens,
(F)To let the oppressed go free,
And that you break every yoke?
7 Is it not (G)to share your bread with the hungry,
And that you bring to your house the poor who are [b]cast out;
(H)When you see the naked, that you cover him,
And not hide yourself from (I)your own flesh?
