Isn’t this the[a] fast that[b] I have been choosing:
    to loose the bonds of injustice,
and[c] to untie the cords of the yoke,
    and[d] to let the oppressed go free,
        and to break every yoke?
Isn’t it to share your bread with the hungry,
    and to bring the homeless poor into your house;
when you see the naked,
    to cover him with clothing,[e]
        and not to raise yourself up[f] from your own flesh and blood?”

“Then your light will break forth like the dawn,
    and your healing will spring up quickly;
and your vindication will go before you,
    and[g] the glory of the Lord will guard your back.
