"This
is my chosen fast: to loosen all the bonds that bind humans unfairly, to let the
oppressed go free, to break every yoke. Share your bread with the hungry, take
the homeless into your homes, clothe the naked when you see him/her, do not turn
away from people in need. Then cleansing life shall break forth like the dawn,
and your wounds shall soon be healed. Your triumph shall go before you and your
Lord’s glory shall be your rearguard. Then you shall call and the Lord will answer.
"
-- Isaiah 57
