Isaiah 58:9 in context

  1. 7Isn’t it to distribute your bread to the hungry,
    and that you bring the poor who are cast out to your house?
    When you see the naked,
    that you cover him;
    and that you not hide yourself from your own flesh?
  2. 8Then your light will break out as the morning,
    and your healing will appear quickly;
    then your righteousness shall go before you,
    and Yahweh’s glory will be your rear guard.
  3. 9Then you will call, and Yahweh will answer.
    You will cry for help, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’
    “If you take away from among you the yoke,
    finger pointing,
    and speaking wickedly;
  4. 10and if you pour out your soul to the hungry,
    and satisfy the afflicted soul,
    then your light will rise in darkness,
    and your obscurity will be as the noonday;
  5. 11and Yahweh will guide you continually,
    satisfy your soul in dry places,
    and make your bones strong.
    You will be like a watered garden,
    and like a spring of water
    whose waters don’t fail.
