Isaiah 58:6-12
Lexham English Bible
6 Is this not the fast I choose: to release the bonds of injustice,
to untie the ropes of the yoke,
and to let the oppressed go free,
and tear[a] every yoke to pieces?
7 Is it not to break your bread for the hungry?
You must bring home[b] the poor, the homeless.
When you see the naked, you must cover him,
and you must not hide yourself from your relatives.[c]
8 Then your light shall break forth like the dawn,
and your healing shall grow quickly.
And your salvation shall go before you;
the glory of Yahweh will be your rear guard.
9 Then you shall call, and Yahweh himself will answer.
You shall cry for help, and he will say, ‘Here I am!’
If you remove from among you the yoke,
the finger-pointing[d] and evil speech,[e]
10 if[f] you offer your soul to the hungry,
and you satisfy the appetite of the afflicted,
then[g] your light shall rise in the darkness,
and your darkness will be like noon.
11 And Yahweh will lead you continually, and satisfy your soul in a barren land,
and he will strengthen your bones,
and you shall be like a well-watered garden,
and like a spring of water whose water does not fail.
12 And they shall rebuild ancient ruins from you;
you shall erect the foundations of many generations,[h]
and you shall be called[i] the bricklayer of the breach,
the restorer of paths to live in.

New International Version
6 “Is not this the kind of fasting(A) I have chosen:
to loose the chains of injustice(B)
and untie the cords of the yoke,
to set the oppressed(C) free
and break every yoke?(D)
7 Is it not to share your food with the hungry(E)
and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter(F)—
when you see the naked, to clothe(G) them,
and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?(H)
8 Then your light will break forth like the dawn,(I)
and your healing(J) will quickly appear;
then your righteousness[a](K) will go before you,
and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.(L)
9 Then you will call,(M) and the Lord will answer;(N)
you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I.
“If you do away with the yoke of oppression,
with the pointing finger(O) and malicious talk,(P)
10 and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry
and satisfy the needs of the oppressed,(Q)
then your light(R) will rise in the darkness,
and your night will become like the noonday.(S)
11 The Lord will guide(T) you always;
he will satisfy your needs(U) in a sun-scorched land(V)
and will strengthen(W) your frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,(X)
like a spring(Y) whose waters never fail.
12 Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins(Z)
and will raise up the age-old foundations;(AA)
you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls,(AB)
Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.
