58:10 You must 1 actively help the hungry
and feed the oppressed. 2
Then your light will dispel the darkness, 3
and your darkness will be transformed into noonday. 4
59:10 We grope along the wall like the blind,
we grope like those who cannot see; 5
we stumble at noontime as if it were evening.
Though others are strong, we are like dead men. 6
