1Thus saith the Lord, Keep judgment and do justice, for my salvation is at hand to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
2Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man which layeth hold on it; he that keepeth the Sabbath, and polluteth it not, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
3And let not the son of the strangers, which is joined to the Lord, speak and say, The Lord hath surely separated me from his people; neither let the Eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
4For thus saith the Lord unto the Eunuchs that keep my Sabbaths, and choose the thing that pleaseth me, and take hold of my covenant,
5Even unto them will I give in mine House and within my walls, a place, and a name better than of the sons and of the daughters; I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be put out.
6Also the strangers that cleave unto the Lord, to serve him, and to love the Name of the Lord, and to be his servants; everyone that keepeth the Sabbath, and polluteth it not, and embraceth my covenant,
7Them will I bring also to mine holy mountain, and make them joyful in mine 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.
8The Lord God saith, which gathereth the scattered of Israel, Yet will I gather to them those that are to be gathered to them.
9All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, even all ye beasts of the forest.
10Their watchmen are all blind: they have no knowledge: they are all dumb dogs: they cannot bark: they lie and sleep, and delight in sleeping.
11And these greedy dogs can never have enough: and these shepherds cannot understand: for they all look to their own way, everyone for his advantage, and for his own purpose.
12Come, I will bring wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink, and tomorrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.
