Isaiah 58:1-2
Lexham English Bible
True Fasts and Sabbaths
58 “Call with the throat; you must not keep back!
lift up your voice like a trumpet,
and declare[a] to my people their rebellion,
and to the house of Jacob their sins.
2 Yet[b] they seek me day by day,
and they desire the knowledge of my ways
like a nation that practiced[c] righteousness,
and had not forsaken the judgment of its God;
they ask me for righteous judgments,[d]
they desire the closeness of God.
