Isaiah 58:12-14

EasyEnglish Bible

¹² You will build again the cities
    which became heaps of stones a long time ago.
You will build your houses on the old foundations.
People will call you, “Builders who mend the walls and the streets with their houses.”
¹³ So remember to obey the rules for the Sabbath day.
That is my holy day,
    so do not just try to please yourselves.
Enjoy the Sabbath day,
    and respect it as the Lord's holy day.
Do not do your usual work on that day.
Do not do things or speak about things,
    only to make yourself happy.
¹⁴ If you do those things, you will be happy
    as you serve me, the Lord.
I will give you all the things that you need.
I will cause crops to grow
    on the land that I gave to your ancestor Jacob.’
