Thus says
the LORD
, " aPreserve
justice
and do
righteousness
, For My bsalvation
is about
to come
And My righteousness
to be revealed
.
"How ablessed is the man
who does
this
, And the son
of man
who btakes
hold
of it; Who ckeeps
from profaning
the sabbath
, And keeps
his hand
from doing
any
evil
."
Let not the aforeigner who has joined
himself to the LORD
say
, "The LORD
will surely
separate
me from His people
." Nor
let the beunuch
say
, "Behold
, I am a dry
tree
."
For thus says
the LORD
, "To the eunuchs
who
akeep
My sabbaths
, And choose
what
pleases
Me, And bhold
fast
My covenant
,
To them I will give in My ahouse
and within My bwalls
a memorial
, And a name
better
than
that of sons
and daughters
; I will give
1them an everlasting
cname
which
dwill not be cut
off
.
"Also the aforeigners who join
themselves to the LORD
, To minister
to Him, and to love
the name
of the LORD
, To be His servants
, every
one
who bkeeps
from profaning
the sabbath
And holds
fast
My covenant
;
Even athose I will bring to My bholy
mountain
And cmake
them joyful
in My house
of prayer
. Their burnt
offerings
and their sacrifices
will be acceptable
on dMy altar
; For eMy house
will be called
a house
of prayer
for all
the peoples
."
The Lord 1GOD
, who agathers
the dispersed
of Israel
, declares
, "Yet
bothers I will gather
to 2them, to those already gathered
."
All you abeasts
of the field
, All
you beasts
in the forest
, Come
to eat
.
His awatchmen are bblind
, All
of them know
nothing
. All
of them are mute
dogs
unable
to bark
, 1Dreamers
lying
down
, who love
to slumber
;
And the dogs are 1 agreedy
, they 2are not satisfied
. And they are shepherds
who have
bno
understanding
; They have all
cturned
to their own way
, Each
one
to his unjust
gain
, to the last
one
.
"Come," they say, "let 1us get
awine
, and let us drink
heavily
of strong
drink
; And btomorrow
will be like today
, only more
so."
