“We have fasted before you,” they say. “Why aren’t you impressed? Why don’t you see our sacrifices? Why don’t you hear our prayers? We have done much penance, and you don’t even notice it!” I’ll tell you why! Because you are living in evil pleasure even while you are fasting, and you keep right on oppressing your workers." (Isaiah 58: 3 TLB)
"Share your food with the hungry,
and give shelter to the homeless.
Give clothes to those who need them, and do not hide from relatives who need your help." (Isaiah 58: 7 NLT)
"Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer, you shall cry for help, and he will say: “Here I am!” (Isaiah 58: 9 NABRE)
