CHAP. LVIII.
1 The prophet, being sent to reprove hypocrisy,
3 expresseth a counterfeit fast and a true.
8 He declareth what promises are due to
godliness, 13 and to the keeping of the sabbath.
1 Cry note aloud, spare not, lift up thy
voice like a trumpet, and show my
people their transgression, and the house
of Jacob their sins.
2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight
to know my ways, as a nation that did
righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance
of their God: they ask of me the
ordinances of justice; they take delight
in approaching to God.
3 ¶2; Why have we fasted, say they, and
thou seest not? why have we afflicted
our soul, and thou takest no knowledge?
Behold, in the day of your fast ye find
pleasure, and exact all your note note labors.
4 Behold, ye fast for strife and debate,
and to smite with the fist of wickedness:
note ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to
make your voice to be heard on high.
5 Is it note such a fast that I have chosen?
note note a day for a man to afflict his soul? is
it to bow down his head as a bulrush,
and to spread sackcloth and ashes under
him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an
acceptable day to the Lord?
6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen?
to loose the bands of wickedness, to
undo note the heavy burdens, and to let the
note oppressed go free, and that ye break
every yoke?
7 Is it not note to deal thy bread to the
hungry, and that thou shouldst bring the
poor that are note cast out to thy house?
when thou seest the naked, that thou
shouldst cover him; and that thou
shouldst not hide thyself from thy own
flesh?
8 ¶2; Then shall thy light break forth as
the morning, and thy health shall spring
forth speedily: and thy righteousness
shall go before thee; the glory of the
Lord note shall be thy rear-ward.
9 Then shalt thou call, and the Lord
will answer; thou shalt cry, and he will
say, Here I am. If thou shalt take away
from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting
forth of the finger, and speaking
vanity;
10 And if thou shalt draw out thy soul
to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted
soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity,
and thy darkness be as the noon day:
11 And the Lord will guide thee continually,
and satisfy thy soul in note drouth,
and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt
-- --
Before CHRIST, 698.
be like a watered garden, and like a
spring of water, whose waters note fail not.
12 And they that shall be of thee note shall
build the old waste places: thou shalt
raise up the foundations of many generations;
and thou shalt be called, The repairer
of the breach, The restorer of
paths to dwell in.
13 ¶2; If thou shalt turn away thy foot
from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure
on my holy day; and call the sabbath
a delight, the holy of the Lord, honorable;
and shalt honor him, not doing
thy own ways, nor finding thy own pleasure,
nor speaking thy own words:
14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in
the Lord; and I will cause thee to note ride
upon the high places of the earth, and
feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy
father: for the mouth of the Lord hath
spoken it.
