Isaiah 56:2-6

2BlessedH835 is the manH582 that doethH6213 this, and the sonH1121 of manH120 that layeth holdH2388 on it; that keepethH8104 the sabbathH7676 from pollutingH2490 it, and keepethH8104 his handH3027 from doingH6213 any evilH7451.

3Neither let the sonH1121 of the strangerH5236, that hath joinedH3867 himself to YhwhH3068, speakH559, sayingH559, YhwhH3068 hath utterlyH914 separatedH914 me from his peopleH5971: neither let the eunuchH5631 sayH559, Behold, I am a dryH3002 treeH6086. 4For thus saithH559 YhwhH3068 unto the eunuchsH5631 that keepH8104 my sabbathsH7676, and chooseH977 the things that pleaseH2654 me, and take holdH2388 of my covenantH1285; 5Even unto them will I giveH5414 in mine houseH1004 and within my wallsH2346 a placeH3027 and a nameH8034 betterH2896 than of sonsH1121 and of daughtersH1323: I will giveH5414 them an everlastingH5769 nameH8034, that shall not be cut offH3772. 6Also the sonsH1121 of the strangerH5236, that joinH3867 themselves to YhwhH3068, to serveH8334 him, and to loveH157 the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068, to be his servantsH5650, every one that keepethH8104 the sabbathH7676 from pollutingH2490 it, and taketh holdH2388 of my covenantH1285;
