23:058:004 Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the
           fist of wickedness:  ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to
           make your voice to be heard on high.

23:058:005 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to
           afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and
           to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a
           fast, and an acceptable day to the lord?

23:058:006 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of
           wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the
           oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?

23:058:007 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring
           the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the
           naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself
           from thine own flesh?

23:058:008 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine
           health shall spring forth speedily:  and thy righteousness
           shall go before thee; the glory of the lord shall be thy
           rereward.

23:058:009 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 finger, and
           speaking vanity;

23:058:010 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the
           afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and
           thy darkness be as the noon day: 

23:058:011 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.

23:058:012 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste
           places:  thou shalt raise up the foundations of many
           generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the
           breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.

23:058:013 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy
           pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the
           holy of the lord, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing
           thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking
           thine own words: 

23:058:014 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the lord; and I will cause
           thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee
           with the heritage of Jacob thy father:  for the mouth of the
           lord hath spoken it.

23:059:001 Behold, the LORD’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save;
           neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
