58:1 Cry 7121 8798 aloud 1627, spare 2820 8799 not, lift 7311 8685 up thy voice 6963 like a trumpet 7782, and shew 5046 8685 my people 5971 their transgression 6588, and the house 1004 of Jacob 3290 their sins 2403.(aloud: Heb. with the throat)

58:2 Yet they seek 1875 8799 me daily 3117 3117, and delight 2654 8799 to know 1847 my ways 1870, as a nation 1471 that did 6213 8804 righteousness 6666, and forsook 5800 8804 not the ordinance 4941 of their God 430: they ask 7592 8799 of me the ordinances 4941 of justice 6664; they take delight 2654 8799 in approaching 7132 to God 430.

58:3 Wherefore have we fasted 6684 8804, [say they], and thou seest 7200 8804 not? [wherefore] have we afflicted 6031 8765 our soul 5315, and thou takest no knowledge 3045 8799? Behold, in the day 3117 of your fast 6685 ye find 4672 8799 pleasure 2656, and exact 5065 8799 all your labours 6092.(labours: or, things wherewith ye grieve others: Heb. griefs)

58:4 Behold, ye fast 6684 8799 for strife 7379 and debate 4683, and to smite 5221 8687 with the fist 106 of wickedness 7562: ye shall not fast 6684 8799 as [ye do this] day 3117, to make your voice 6963 to be heard 8085 8687 on high 4791.(ye shall…: or, ye fast not as this day)

58:5 Is it such a fast 6685 that I have chosen 977 8799? a day 3117 for a man 120 to afflict 6031 8763 his soul 5315? [is it] to bow down 3721 8800 his head 7218 as a bulrush 100, and to spread 3331 8686 sackcloth 8242 and ashes 665 [under him]? wilt thou call 7121 8799 this 2088 a fast 6685, and an acceptable 7522 day 3117 to the LORD 3068?(a day…: or, to afflict his soul for a day?)

58:6 [Is] not this the fast 6685 that I have chosen 977 8799? to loose 6605 8763 the bands 2784 of wickedness 7562, to undo 5425 8687 the heavy 4133 burdens 92, and to let the oppressed 7533 8803 go 7971 8763 free 2670, and that ye break 5423 8762 every yoke 4133?(the heavy…: Heb. the bundles of the yoke)(oppressed: Heb. broken)

58:7 [Is it] not to deal 6536 8800 thy bread 3899 to the hungry 7457, and that thou bring 935 8686 the poor 6041 that are cast out 4788 to thy house 1004? when thou seest 7200 8799 the naked 6174, that thou cover 3680 8765 him; and that thou hide 5956 8691 not thyself from thine own flesh 1320?(cast…: or, afflicted)

58:8 Then shall thy light 216 break forth 1234 8735 as the morning 7837, and thine health 724 shall spring forth 6779 8799 speedily 4120: and thy righteousness 6664 shall go 1980 8804 before 6440 thee; the glory 3519 of the LORD 3068 shall be thy rereward 622 8799.(be…: Heb. gather thee up)

58:9 Then shalt thou call 7121 8799, and the LORD 3068 shall answer 6030 8799; thou shalt cry 7768 8762, and he shall say 559 8799, Here I [am]. If thou take away 5493 8686 from the midst 8432 of thee the yoke 4133, the putting forth 7971 8800 of the finger 676, and speaking 1696 8763 vanity 205;

58:10 And [if] thou draw out 6329 8686 thy soul 5315 to the hungry 7457, and satisfy 7646 8686 the afflicted 6031 8737 soul 5315; then shall thy light 216 rise 2224 8804 in obscurity 2822, and thy darkness 653 [be] as the noonday 6672:

58:11 And the LORD 3068 shall guide 5148 8804 thee continually 8548, and satisfy 7646 8689 thy soul 5315 in drought 6710, and make fat 2502 8686 thy bones 6106: and thou shalt be like a watered 7302 garden 1588, and like a spring 4161 of water 4325, whose waters 4325 fail 3576 8762 not.(drought: Heb. droughts)(fail: Heb. lie, or, deceive)

58:12 And [they that shall be] of thee shall build 1129 8804 the old 5769 waste places 2723: thou shalt raise up 6965 8787 the foundations 4146 of many 1755 generations 1755; and thou shalt be called 7121 8795, The repairer 1443 8802 of the breach 6556, The restorer 7725 8789 of paths 5410 to dwell in 3427 8800.

58:13 If thou turn away 7725 8686 thy foot 7272 from the sabbath 7676, [from] doing 6213 8800 thy pleasure 2656 on my holy 6944 day 3117; and call 7121 8804 the sabbath 7676 a delight 6027, the holy 6918 of the LORD 3068, honourable 3513 8794; and shalt honour 3513 8765 him, not doing 6213 8800 thine own ways 1870, nor finding 4672 8800 thine own pleasure 2656, nor speaking 1696 8763 [thine own] words 1697:

58:14 Then shalt thou delight 6026 8691 thyself in the LORD 3068; and I will cause thee to ride 7392 8689 upon the high places 1116 of the earth 776, and feed 398 8689 thee with the heritage 5159 of Jacob 3290 thy father 1: for the mouth 6310 of the LORD 3068 hath spoken 1696 8765 [it].
