Isaiah 58:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer: thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am: if thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the [a]finger, and wicked speaking:
10 If thou [b]pour out thy soul to the hungry, and refresh the troubled soul: then shall thy light spring out in the [c]darkness, and thy darkness shall be as the noon day.
11 And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat 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.
