Isaiah 56:3–8

³And do not let the foreigner^c who joins himself to Yahweh say, “Surely Yahweh will separate me from his people.”

And do not let the eunuch say, “Look! I am a dry tree!”

⁴For thus says Yahweh, “To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths,

and choose that in which I delight,

and who keep hold of my covenant.

⁵And I will give them a monument and a name in my house and within my walls,

better than sons and daughters;

I will give him an everlasting name

that shall not be cut off.

⁶And the foreigners^d who join themselves to Yahweh to serve him

and to love the name of Yahweh, to become his servants,

every one who keeps the Sabbath, so as not to profane^e it,

and those who keep hold of my covenant,

⁷I will bring them to my holy mountain;^f

I will make them merry in my house of prayer.

their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted^g on my altar,

for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples,”

⁸declares^h the Lord Yahweh, who gathersⁱ the scattered ones of Israel (still I will gather to^j him, to his gathered ones).
