Isaiah 58:9-11
American Standard Version
9 Then shalt thou call, and Jehovah will answer; thou shalt cry, and he will say, Here I am.
If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedly; 10 and if thou [a]draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul: then shall thy light rise in darkness, and thine obscurity be as the noonday; 11 and Jehovah will guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in [b]dry places, and make strong thy bones; and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.

Isaiah 58:9-11
New International Version
9 Then you will call,(A) and the Lord will answer;(B)
you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I.
“If you do away with the yoke of oppression,
with the pointing finger(C) and malicious talk,(D)
10 and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry
and satisfy the needs of the oppressed,(E)
then your light(F) will rise in the darkness,
and your night will become like the noonday.(G)
11 The Lord will guide(H) you always;
he will satisfy your needs(I) in a sun-scorched land(J)
and will strengthen(K) your frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,(L)
like a spring(M) whose waters never fail.
