Isaiah 58:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 And they shall be of thee, that shall build the old [a]waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations for many generations, and thou shalt be called the repairer of the breach, and the restorer of the paths to dwell in.
13 If thou [b]turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy will on mine Holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight to consecrate it, as glorious to the Lord, and shalt honor him, not doing thine own ways, nor seeking thine own will, nor speaking a vain word,
14 Then shalt thou delight in the Lord, and I will cause thee to mount 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.

New International Version
12 Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins(A)
and will raise up the age-old foundations;(B)
you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls,(C)
Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.
13 “If you keep your feet from breaking the Sabbath(D)
and from doing as you please on my holy day,
if you call the Sabbath a delight(E)
and the Lord’s holy day honorable,
and if you honor it by not going your own way
and not doing as you please or speaking idle words,(F)
14 then you will find your joy(G) in the Lord,
and I will cause you to ride in triumph on the heights(H) of the land
and to feast on the inheritance(I) of your father Jacob.”
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.(J)
