23_ISA_56_01 thus saith the LORD , keep ye judgment , And do justice : for my salvation [ Is ] near to come , And my righteousness to be revealed .
23_ISA_56_02 blessed [ Is ] the man [ that ] doeth this , And the son of man [ that ] layeth hold on it ; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it , And keepeth his hand from doing any evil .
23_ISA_56_03 neither let the son of the stranger , that hath joined himself to the LORD , speak , saying , the LORD hath utterly separated me from his people : neither let the eunuch say , behold , I [ am ] A dry tree .
23_ISA_56_04 for thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths , And Choose [ the things ] that please me , And take hold of my covenant ;
23_ISA_56_05 even unto them will I give in mine house And within my walls A place And A name Better than of sons And of daughters : I will give them an everlasting name , that shall not be cut off .
23_ISA_56_06 also the sons of the stranger , that join themselves to the LORD , to serve him , And to love the name of the LORD , to be his servants , every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it , And taketh hold of my covenant ;
23_ISA_56_07 even them will I bring to my holy mountain , And make them joyful in my house of prayer : their burnt offerings And their sacrifices [ shall be ] accepted upon mine altar ; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people .
23_ISA_56_08 the LORD God which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith , yet will I gather [ others ] to him , beside those that are gathered unto him .
23_ISA_56_09 all ye beasts of the field , come to devour , [ yea ] , all ye beasts in the forest .
23_ISA_56_10 his watchmen [ are ] blind : they are all ignorant , they [ are ] all dumb dogs , they cannot bark ; sleeping , lying down , loving to slumber .
23_ISA_56_11 yea , [ they are ] greedy dogs [ which ] can never have enough , And they [ are ] shepherds [ that ] cannot understand : they all Look to their own way , every one for his gain , from his quarter .
23_ISA_56_12 come ye , [ say they ] , I will fetch wine , And we will fill ourselves with strong drink ; And to morrow shall be as this day , [ And ] much more abundant .
