Isaiah 58:5-7

Christian Standard Bible

⁵ Will the fast I choose be like this:
A day for a person to deny himself,
to bow his head like a reed,
and to spread out sackcloth and ashes?^(A)
Will you call this a fast
and a day acceptable to the Lord?
⁶ Isn’t this the fast I choose:
To break the chains of wickedness,^(B)
to untie the ropes of the yoke,
to set the oppressed free,
and to tear off every yoke?^(C)
7 Is it not to share your bread with the hungry,^(D)
to bring the poor and homeless into your house,
to clothe the naked when you see him,^(E)
and not to ignore your own flesh and blood?^[a](F)
