Revised Version 1895
Isaiah 58:2-5
2Yet they seekH1875 meH7592 dailyH3117, and delightH2654 to knowH1847 my waysH1870: as a nationH1471 that didH6213 righteousnessH6666 and forsook notH3808 the ordinanceH4941 of their GodH430, they askH7592 of meH7592 righteousH6664 ordinancesH4941, they delightH2654 to draw nearH3808 unto GodH430.
3Wherefore have weH3117 fastedH6684, say they, and thou seest notH3808? wherefore have weH3117 afflicted our soulH5315, and thou takest noH3808 knowledgeH3045? BeholdH2005, in the dayH3117 of your fastH6685 ye findH4672 your ownH5315 pleasureH2656, and exactH5065 allH3605 your labours.
4BeholdH2005, ye fastH6684 for strifeH7379 and contentionH7379, and to smiteH5221 with the fistH106 of wickednessH7562: ye fastH6684 notH3808 this dayH3117 soH3808 as to makeH8085 your voiceH6963 to be heardH8085 on highH4791.
5Is suchH2088 the fastH6685 that I have chosenH977? the dayH3117 for a manH120 to afflictH6031 his soulH5315? Is it to bowH3721 downH3721 his headH7218 as a rush, and to spreadH3331 sackclothH8242 and ashesH665 under him? wilt thou callH7121 this a fastH6685, and an acceptableH7522 dayH3117 to the LORDH3068?
