Isaiah 58:5

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

Is this the fast I have chosen: a day for a man to deny himself, to bow his head like a reed, and to spread out sackcloth and ashes? Will you call this a fast and a day acceptable to the LORD?

World English Bible (WEB)

Is this the fast that I have chosen? A day for a man to humble his soul? Is it to bow down his head like a reed, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under himself? Will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to Yahweh?

King James Version (KJV)

Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?

American Standard Version (ASV)

Is such the fast that I have chosen? the day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head as a rush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to Jehovah?

Bible in Basic English (BBE)

Have I given orders for such a day as this? a day for keeping yourselves from pleasure? is it only a question of the bent head, of putting on haircloth, and being seated in the dust? is this what seems to you a holy day, well-pleasing to the Lord?

Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Reina-Valera 1909 (RVR 1909)

¿Es tal el ayuno que yo escogí, que de día aflija el hombre su alma, que encorve su cabeza como junco, y haga cama de saco y de ceniza? ¿Llamaréis esto ayuno, y día agradable á Jehová?

Sagradas Escrituras 1569 (SE 1569)

Nueva Biblia Viva (NBV)

Si a eso que ustedes hacen le llaman ayuno, ¡a mí no me agrada para nada! Para mí nada tiene que ver con el ayuno que ustedes hagan penitencia y se mortifiquen y doblen la espalda como junco y se vistan de luto y se acuesten sobre ceniza.
