8  ^rThen shall your light break forth like the dawn,

and your healing shall spring up speedily;

your righteousness shall go before you;

^sthe glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.

10  if you pour yourself out for the hungry

and satisfy the desire of the afflicted,

then shall your light rise in the darkness

and your gloom be as the noonday.

9  I will bear the indignation of the Lord

because I have sinned against him,

until he ^qpleads my cause

and executes judgment for me.

He will bring me out to the light;

I shall look upon his vindication.
