New King James Version
13 “If (A)you turn away your foot from the Sabbath,
From doing your pleasure on My holy day,

Nor speaking your own words,

And I will cause you to (C)ride on the high hills of the earth,
And feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father.
(D)The mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
