Isaiah
56:1 Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice:
for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be
revealed.
Isaiah
56:2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of
man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting
it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
Isaiah
56:3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined
himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated
me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am
a dry tree.
Isaiah
56:4 For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep
my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold
of my covenant;
Isaiah
56:5 Even unto them will I give in mine house and within
my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters:
I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
Isaiah
56:6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves
to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD,
to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting
it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
Isaiah
56:7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make
them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and
their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine
house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
Isaiah
56:8 The Lord GOD which gathereth the outcasts of Israel
saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are
gathered unto him. |
