Yeshayahu 56 ישעיהו נ״ו

Thus says the Lord, Keep judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.

Happy is the man that does this, and the son of man that lays hold on it; that keeps the Sabbath and does not profane it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.

Neither let the son of the stranger, that has joined himself to the Lord, speak, saying, The Lord shall surely separate me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

For thus says the Lord to the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant;

And to them will I give in my house and within my walls a memorial better than sons and daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.

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 keeps the sabbath and does not profane it, and all that hold fast to my covenant.

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 on my altar; for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.

The Lord God who gathers the outcasts of Yisra᾽el says, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those of him that are already gathered.

All you beasts of the field, come into the forest, to devour all the beasts thereof.

His watchmen are all blind: they are ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber.

Yea, the dogs are greedy, they 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.

Come, 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.
