|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 1 This is what Yahweh says, "Observe what is right, do what is just;
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 for my salvation is near, and my righteousness is about to be revealed.
|

|
|
|
|
|
\q1 He observes the Sabbath, not defiling it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil."

\v 3 Let no foreigner who has become a follower of Yahweh say,
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 "Yahweh will certainly exclude me from his people."
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 The eunuch should not say, "See, I am a dry tree."

|
|
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 4 For this is what Yahweh says, "To the eunuchs who observe my Sabbaths
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 and choose what pleases me, and hold fast my covenant—
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 5 To them I will set up in my house and within my walls a monument that is better than having sons and of daughters;
|
|
|
|
|
\q1
|
|
|
|
|
I will give them an everlasting monument that will not be cut off."

\v 6 Also foreigners who join themselves to Yahweh,
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 to serve him, and who love the name of Yahweh, to worship him,
|
2016-08-08 18:52:12 +00:00
|
|
|
\q1 every one who observes the Sabbath and who keeps from defiling it, and who holds fast my covenant,

\q1

\v 7 "These I will bring to my holy mountain and make them joyful in my house of prayer;
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar.
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 For my house will be called a house of prayer for all nations,

\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 8 this is the declaration of the Lord Yahweh, who gathers the outcasts of Israel—
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 I will still gather others in addition to them."

\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 10 All their watchmen are blind; they do not understand;
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 they are all dumb dogs; they cannot bark:
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 dreaming, lying down, loving to sleep.

\q1
|
|
|
|
|
\v 11 The dogs have big appetites; they can never get enough;
|
|
|
|
|
\q1 they are shepherds without discernment;
|
2016-08-08 18:52:12 +00:00
|
|
|
\q1 they have all turned to their own way, each one covetous for unjust gain.
