Isaiah 56:4-7
4For thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “To the eunuchsH5631 whoH834 1keepH8104 My sabbathsH7676, And chooseH977 whatH834 pleasesH2654 Me, And 2holdH2388 fastH2388 My covenantH1285,5To them I will giveH5414 in My 3houseH1004 and within My 4wallsH2346 a memorialH3027, And a nameH8034 betterH2896 thanH4480 that of sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323; I will giveH5414 5them an everlastingH5769 6nameH8034 whichH834 7will not be cutH3772 offH3772.
6“Also the 8foreignersH1121H5236 who joinH3867 themselves to the LordH3068, To ministerH8334 to Him, and to loveH157 the nameH8034 of the LordH3068, To be His servantsH5650, everyH3605 oneH3605 who 9keepsH8104 from profaningH2490 the sabbathH7676 And holdsH2388 fastH2388 My covenantH1285;7Even 10those I will bringH935 to My 11holyH6944 mountainH2022 And 12makeH8055 them joyfulH8055 in My houseH1004 of prayerH8605. Their burntH5930 offeringsH5930 and their sacrificesH2077 will be acceptableH7522 on 13My altarH4196; For 14My houseH1004 will be calledH7121 a houseH1004 of prayerH8605 for allH3605 the peoplesH5971.”
