|
2. Yet they seek H1875 me daily H3117 H3117 , and delight H2654 to know H1847 my ways H1870 , as a nation H1471 that H834 did H6213 righteousness H6666 , and forsook H5800 not H3808 the ordinance H4941 of their God H430 : they ask H7592 of me the ordinances H4941 of justice H6664 ; they take delight H2654 in approaching H7132 to God H430 .

3. Wherefore have we fasted, {cf15i say they}, and thou seest not? {cf15i wherefore} have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? Behold, in the day of your fast ye find {cf15i your own} pleasure, and exact all your labours.
|

|
5. Is such the fast that I have chosen? the day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head as a rush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
|
5. Is H1961 it such H2088 a fast H6685 that I have chosen H977 ? a day H3117 for a man H120 to afflict H6031 his soul H5315 ? is it to bow down H3721 his head H7218 as a bulrush H100 , and to spread H3331 sackcloth H8242 and ashes H665 under him ? wilt thou call H7121 this H2088 a fast H6685 , and an acceptable H7522 day H3117 to the LORD H3068 ?
|

|
7. 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?
|
7. Is it not H3808 to deal H6536 thy bread H3899 to the hungry H7457 , and that thou bring H935 the poor H6041 that are cast out H4788 to thy house H1004 ? when H3588 thou seest H7200 the naked H6174 , that thou cover H3680 him ; and that thou hide not thyself H5956 H3808 from thine own flesh H4480 H1320 ?
|
8. Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy healing shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rearward.
|
8. Then H227 shall thy light H216 break forth H1234 as the morning H7837 , and thine health H724 shall spring forth H6779 speedily H4120 : and thy righteousness H6664 shall go H1980 before H6440 thee ; the glory H3519 of the LORD H3068 shall be thy rearward H622 .
|
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 finger, and speaking wickedly;
|
9. Then H227 shalt thou call H7121 , and the LORD H3068 shall answer H6030 ; thou shalt cry H7768 , and he shall say H559 , Here H2009 I am . If H518 thou take away H5493 from the midst H4480 H8432 of thee the yoke H4133 , the putting forth H7971 of the finger H676 , and speaking H1696 vanity H205 ;
|
10. and if thou 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:
|
10. And if thou draw out H6329 thy soul H5315 to the hungry H7457 , and satisfy H7646 the afflicted H6031 soul H5315 ; then shall thy light H216 rise H2224 in obscurity H2822 , and thy darkness H653 be as the noonday H6672 :
|
11. and the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in 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.

And the LORD H3068 shall guide H5148 thee continually H8548 , and satisfy H7646 thy soul H5315 in drought H6710 , and make fat H2502 thy bones H6106 : and thou shalt be H1961 like a watered H7302 garden H1588 , and like a spring H4161 of water H4325 , whose H834 waters H4325 fail H3576 not H3808 .
|
12. 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.
|
12. And they that shall be of H4480 thee shall build H1129 the old H5769 waste places H2723 : thou shalt raise up H6965 the foundations H4146 of many generations H1755 H1755 ; and thou shalt be called H7121 , The repairer H1443 of the breach H6556 , The restorer H7725 of paths H5410 to dwell H3427 in.
|
13. If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, {cf15i and} the holy of the LORD honourable; and shalt honour it, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking {cf15i thine own} words:
|
13. If H518 thou turn away H7725 thy foot H7272 from the sabbath H4480 H7676 , from doing H6213 thy pleasure H2656 on my holy H6944 day H3117 ; and call H7121 the sabbath H7676 a delight H6027 , the holy H6918 of the LORD H3068 , honorable H3513 ; and shalt honor H3513 him , not doing H4480 H6213 thine own ways H1870 , nor finding H4480 H4672 thine own pleasure H2656 , nor speaking H1696 thine own words H1697 :
|
14. then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will make thee to ride upon the high places of the earth; and I will feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
|
14. Then H227 shalt thou delight thyself H6026 in H5921 the LORD H3068 ; and I will cause thee to ride H7392 upon H5921 the high places H1116 of the earth H776 , and feed H398 thee with the heritage H5159 of Jacob H3290 thy father H1 : for H3588 the mouth H6310 of the LORD H3068 hath spoken H1696 it .
