Our afflictions come at least monthly.
No food or drink (for half a day)!
Is this not the required way?
When did I publish the decree,
To wear a sackcloth painfully?
Or in the bulrush bow your head
While wanting for some wine and bread?
Behold the fast to be endured:
To break the yoke of those immured
And bring the poor from your house cast
While loosing bands. This is my fast.
The light shall break forth in the day------------------------------------------------------------------------
That you employ the higher Way.
And paths repaired will bare the feet
Of prisoners freed and souls complete.
Then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
