Isaiah 58:1-4

Cry
<07121> (8798)

aloud
<01627>_,

spare
<02820> (8799)

not, lift
<07311> (8685)

up thy voice
<06963>

like a trumpet
<07782>_,

and shew
<05046> (8685)

my people
<05971>

their transgression
<06588>_,

and the house
<01004>

of Jacob
<03290>

their sins
<02403>_.

{aloud: Heb. with the throat}

Yet they seek
<01875> (8799)

me daily
<03117> <03117>_,

and delight
<02654> (8799)

to know
<01847>

my ways
<01870>_,

as a nation
<01471>

that did
<06213> (8804)

righteousness
<06666>_,

and forsook
<05800> (8804)

not the ordinance
<04941>

of their God
<0430>_:

they ask
<07592> (8799)

of me the ordinances
<04941>

of justice
<06664>_;

they take delight
<02654> (8799)

in approaching
<07132>

to God
<0430>_.

Wherefore have we fasted
<06684> (8804)_,

[say they], and thou seest
<07200> (8804)

not? [wherefore] have we afflicted
<06031> (8765)

our soul
<05315>_,

and thou takest no knowledge
<03045> (8799)_?

Behold, in the day
<03117>

of your fast
<06685>

ye find
<04672> (8799)

pleasure
<02656>_,

and exact
<05065> (8799)

all your labours
<06092>_.

{labours: or, things wherewith ye grieve others: Heb. griefs}

Behold, ye fast
<06684> (8799)

for strife
<07379>

and debate
<04683>_,

and to smite
<05221> (8687)

with the fist
<0106>

of wickedness
<07562>_:

ye shall not fast
<06684> (8799)

as [ye do this] day
<03117>_,

to make your voice
<06963>

to be heard
<08085> (8687)

on high
<04791>_.

{ye shall...: or, ye fast not as this day}
