10 and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry
    and satisfy the needs of the oppressed,(A)
then your light(B) will rise in the darkness,
    and your night will become like the noonday.(C)
11 The Lord will guide(D) you always;
    he will satisfy your needs(E) in a sun-scorched land(F)
    and will strengthen(G) your frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,(H)
    like a spring(I) whose waters never fail.
12 Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins(J)
    and will raise up the age-old foundations;(K)
you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls,(L)
    Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.

13 “If you keep your feet from breaking the Sabbath(M)
    and from doing as you please on my holy day,
if you call the Sabbath a delight(N)
    and the Lord’s holy day honorable,
and if you honor it by not going your own way
    and not doing as you please or speaking idle words,(O)
14 then you will find your joy(P) in the Lord,
    and I will cause you to ride in triumph on the heights(Q) of the land
    and to feast on the inheritance(R) of your father Jacob.”
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.(S)
