Isaiah 58:1-3 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

1. Shout the message!Don't hold back.Say to my people Israel:You've sinned! You've turnedagainst the Lord.

2. Day after day, you worship himand seem eager to learnhis teachings.You act like a nationthat wants to do rightby obeying his laws.You ask him about justice,and say you enjoyworshipping the Lord.

3. You wonder why the Lordpays no attentionwhen you go without eatingand act humble.But on those same daysthat you give up eating,you think only of yourselvesand abuse your workers.
