Isaiah 58 Versification

Lift up your voice and shout it out,
Declare my people’s sin.
Tell Israel her doom is near;
Soon judgment shall begin.

You think that I will see your works,
I see the heart instead.
In arrogant self-righteousness
Its offerings are dead.

But this is what I choose for you:
To comfort those distressed,
To loose the bonds of wickedness,
And free all those oppressed.

Give them your hands; give me your heart,
Sincere in all you do.
Then you shall take delight in me
And I delight in you.
