45:3 I will give you hidden treasures, 1
riches stashed away in secret places,
so you may recognize that I am the Lord,
the one who calls you by name, the God of Israel.
55:5 Look, you will summon nations 2 you did not previously know;
nations 3 that did not previously know you will run to you,
because of the Lord your God,
the Holy One of Israel, 4
for he bestows honor on you.
58:3 They lament, 5 ‘Why don’t you notice when we fast?
Why don’t you pay attention when we humble ourselves?’
Look, at the same time you fast, you satisfy your selfish desires, 6
you oppress your workers. 7
