ye shall not fast - rather, “ye do not fast at this time, so as to make your voice to be heard on high,” that is, in heaven; your aim in fasting is strife, not to gain the ear of God [Maurer] (1Ki 21:9, 1Ki 21:12, 1Ki 21:13). In English Version the sense is, If you wish acceptance with God, ye must not fast as ye now do, to make your voice heard high in strife.
