Amplified Bible
Isaiah 58:6-8
Amplified Bible
6
“[Rather] is this not the fast which I choose,
To undo the bonds of wickedness,
To tear to pieces the ropes of the yoke,
To let the oppressed go free
And break apart every [enslaving] yoke?(A)
7
“Is it not to divide your bread with the hungry
And bring the homeless poor into the house;
When you see the naked, that you cover him,
And not to hide yourself from [the needs of] your own flesh and blood?
8
“Then your light will break out like the dawn,
And your healing (restoration, new life) will quickly spring forth;
Your righteousness will go before you [leading you to peace and prosperity],
The glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.(B)

New International Version
Isaiah 58:6-8
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)
