Isaiah 58:11-13
International Standard Version
11 And the Lord will guide you continually,
and satisfy your soul in parched places,[a]
and they[b] will strengthen your bones;
and you’ll be like a watered garden,
like a spring of water,
whose waters never fail.
12 And your people will rebuild the ancient ruins;
You’ll raise up the age-old foundations,[c]
and people will call you[d] ‘Repairer of Broken Walls,’
‘Restorer of Streets to Live In.’
13 “If you keep your feet from trampling the Sabbath,
from[e] pursuing your own interests on my holy day,
if you call the Sabbath a delight
and[f] the Lord’s holy day honorable;
and if you honor it by not going your own ways[g]
and[h] seeking your own pleasure or speaking merely idle[i] words,
