Is this not the fast which I choose,
To (A)loosen the bonds of wickedness,
To release the bands of [a]the yoke,
And to (B)let the oppressed go free
And (C)break every [b]yoke?
Is it not to (D)divide your bread [c]with the hungry
And (E)bring the afflicted homeless into the house;
When you see the (F)naked, you cover him;
And not to (G)hide yourself from your own flesh?
Then your (H)light will break out like the dawn,
And your (I)recovery will speedily spring forth;
And your (J)righteousness will go before you;
The glory of (K)Yahweh will be your rear guard.
