Isaiah 58:3-9
Isaiah 58:3-9 NCV
They say, ‘To honor you we had special days when we fasted, but you didn’t see. We humbled ourselves to honor you, but you didn’t notice.’ ” But the LORD says, “You do what pleases yourselves on these special days, and you are unfair to your workers.

I don’t want people just to bow their heads like a plant and wear rough cloth and lie in ashes to show their sadness.

Free those to whom you are unfair and stop their hard labor. Share your food with the hungry and bring poor, homeless people into your own homes. When you see someone who has no clothes, give him yours, and don’t refuse to help your own relatives. Then your light will shine like the dawn, and your wounds will quickly heal.

You will cry out, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’ “If you stop making trouble for others, if you stop using cruel words and pointing your finger at others
