NETBible

Is this really the kind of fasting I want? 1  Do I want a day when people merely humble themselves, 2  bowing their heads like a reed and stretching out 3  on sackcloth and ashes? Is this really what you call a fast, a day that is pleasing to the Lord?

NET Notes

tn Heb “choose” (so NASB, NRSV); NAB “wish.”

tn Heb “a day when man humbles himself.” The words “Do I want” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

tn Or “making [their] bed.”
