“Surely this is the fast I choose: open the bonds of wickedness, dissolve the groups that pervert justice, let the oppressed go free and annul all perverted justice. Surely you should divide your bread with the hungry and bring the moaning poor to your home; when you see the naked, cover him and do not ignore your kin. Then your light will burst forth like the dawn and your healing will speedily sprout; then your righteous deed will precede you and glory of God will gather you in. Then you will call and God will respond, you will cry out and He will say ‘Here I am!’ if you remove from your midst perversion, finger-pointing and evil speech. And if you offer your soul to the hungry and satisfy the afflicted soul, then your light will shine in the darkness and the deepest gloom will be like noon. Then God will guide you always, sate your soul in times of drought and strengthen your bones; and you will be like a well watered garden and a spring whose waters never fail. Age old ruins will be rebuilt through you, you will erect generations old foundations
