Isaiah 56:3-8

3 Let not athe foreigner who has joined himself to the Lord say,
“The Lord will surely separate me from his people”;
and let not the eunuch say,
Behold, I am ba dry tree.”
4For thus says the Lord:
“To the eunuchs cwho keep my Sabbaths,
who choose the things that please me
and hold fast my covenant,
5 dI will give in my house and within my walls
a emonument and a name
better than sons and daughters;
fI will give them an everlasting name
that shall not be cut off.
6 “And gthe foreigners who join themselves to the Lord,
to minister to him, to love the name of the Lord,
and to be his servants,
everyone hwho keeps the Sabbath and does not profane it,
and holds fast my covenant
7 ithese I will bring to jmy holy mountain,
and make them joyful in my house of prayer;
ktheir burnt offerings and their sacrifices
will be accepted on my altar;
for lmy house shall be called a house of prayer
for all peoples.”
8The Lord God,
mwho gathers the outcasts of Israel, declares,
n“I will gather yet others to him
besides those already gathered.”
