Isaiah 58:5-8

English Standard Version

⁶ “Is not this the fast that I choose:
    ^(C)to loose the bonds of wickedness,
    to undo the straps ^(D)of the yoke,
to let the oppressed^[a] go free,
    and to break every yoke?
⁷ Is it not ^(E)to share your bread with the hungry
    and bring the homeless poor into your house;
when you see the naked, to cover him,
    ^(F)and not to hide yourself from your own flesh?
^8 (G)Then shall your light break forth like the dawn,
    ^(H)and your healing shall spring up speedily;
^(I)your righteousness shall go before you;
    ^(J)the glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.
