Isaiah 56:6-12

6Also the strangers, that joinH3867 themselvesH5921 to the LORDH3068, to ministerH8334 unto him, and to loveH157 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, to be his servantsH5650, everyH3605 one that keepeth the sabbathH7676 from profaningH2490 it, and holdeth fastH2388 by my covenantH1285; 7evenH3588 them will I bringH935 to my holyH6944 mountainH2022, and makeH8055 them joyfulH8055 in my houseH1004 of prayerH8605; their burntH5930 offeringsH5930 and their sacrificesH2077 shall be acceptedH7522 uponH5921 mine altarH4196: for mine houseH1004 shall be calledH7121 an houseH1004 of prayerH8605 for allH3605 peoplesH5971. 8The LordH136 GODH136 which gathereth the outcasts of IsraelH3478 saith, Yet will I gatherH6908 others to him, besideH5921 his own that are gatheredH6908. 9AllH3605 ye beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704, comeH857 to devourH398, yea, allH3605 ye beastsH2416 in the forestH3293. 10His watchmenH6822 are blindH5787, they are allH3605 withoutH3808 knowledgeH3045; they are allH3605 dumb dogsH3611, they cannotH3808 barkH5024; dreaming, lyingH7901 downH7901, lovingH157 to slumberH5123. 11Yea, the dogsH3611 are greedy, they canH3045 neverH3808 have enough; and theseH1992 are shepherdsH7462 that cannotH3808 understandH995: they have allH3605 turnedH6437 to their ownH376 wayH1870, eachH376 one to his gainH1215, from everyH3605 quarter. 12ComeH1961 ye, say they, I will fetch wineH3196, and weH3117 will fill ourselves with strongH7941 drinkH7941; and tomorrowH4279 shall be as this dayH3117, a dayH3117 greatH1419 beyond measureH3966.
