1Thus says the LORD: Keep justice and do righteousness, for my salvation is near to come and my righteousness is to be revealed.2Blessed is the one who does this, and the son of man who holds fast to it, keeping the Sabbath without profaning it and keeping his hand from doing any evil.3Let not the foreigner who has joined himself to the LORD say, 'The LORD will surely separate me from his people,' and let not the eunuch say, 'Look, I am a dry tree.'4For thus says the LORD to the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths, who choose what delights me, and who hold fast to my covenant.5I will give them in my house and within my walls a place and a name better than sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name that will not be cut off.6The foreigners who have joined themselves to the LORD will minister to him, love the name of the LORD, and become his servants—all who keep the Sabbath without profaning it and who hold fast to my covenant.7I will bring them to my holy mountain and make them joyful in my house of prayer; their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar, for my house will be called a house of prayer for all peoples.8This is the declaration of the Lord GOD, who gathers the outcasts of Israel: I will gather still more to those already gathered.
