- God continues to speak to the people of Judah.

- remove the evil of your deeds from my sight - God was not telling them to do their evil deeds somewhere else, but to stop doing them. Alternate translation: "Stop doing the evil deeds that I see you doing."
- the oppressed - "people who are oppressed" or "people who are treated cruelly"
- give justice to the fatherless - "be fair to the children who do not have fathers"
- defend the widow - "protect the women whose husbands have died"
