1 H559 Thus saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD H8104 , Keep [H8798] H4941 ye judgment H6213 , and do [H8798] H6666 justice H3444 : for my salvation H7138 is near H935 to come [H8800] H6666 , and my righteousness H1540 to be revealed [H8736] .

2 H835 Blessed H582 is the man H6213 that doeth [H8799] H1121 this, and the son H120 of man H2388 that layeth hold [H8686] H8104 on it; that keepeth [H8802] H7676 the sabbath H2490 from polluting [H8763] H8104 it, and keepeth [H8802] H3027 his hand H6213 from doing [H8800] H7451 any evil.

3 H1121 Neither let the son H5236 of the stranger H3867 , that hath joined [H8738] H3068 himself to the LORD H559 , speak [H8799] H559 , saying [H8800] H3068 , The LORD H914 hath utterly [H8687] H914 separated [H8686] H5971 me from his people H5631 : neither let the eunuch H559 say [H8799] H3002 , Behold, I am a dry H6086 tree.

4 H559 For thus saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD H5631 unto the eunuchs H8104 that keep [H8799] H7676 my sabbaths H977 , and choose [H8804] H2654 the things that please [H8804] H2388 me, and take hold [H8688] H1285 of my covenant;

5 H5414 Even unto them will I give [H8804] H1004 in mine house H2346 and within my walls H3027 a place H8034 and a name H2896 better H1121 than of sons H1323 and of daughters H5414 : I will give [H8799] H5769 them an everlasting H8034 name H3772 , that shall not be cut off [H8735] .

6 H1121 Also the sons H5236 of the stranger H3867 , that join [H8737] H3068 themselves to the LORD H8334 , to serve [H8763] H157 him, and to love [H8800] H8034 the name H3068 of the LORD H5650 , to be his servants H8104 , every one that keepeth [H8802] H7676 the sabbath H2490 from polluting [H8763] H2388 it, and taketh hold [H8688] H1285 of my covenant;

7 H935 Even them will I bring [H8689] H6944 to my holy H2022 mountain H8055 , and make them joyful [H8765] H1004 in my house H8605 of prayer H5930 : their burnt offerings H2077 and their sacrifices H7522 shall be accepted H4196 upon mine altar H1004 ; for mine house H7121 shall be called [H8735] H1004 an house H8605 of prayer H5971 for all people.

8 H136 The Lord H3069 GOD H6908 which gathereth [H8764] H1760 the outcasts [H8737] H3478 of Israel H5002 saith [H8803] H6908 , Yet will I gather [H8762] H6908 others to him, beside those that are gathered [H8737] unto him.

9 H2416 All ye beasts H7704 of the field H857 , come [H8798] H398 to devour [H8800] H2416 , yea, all ye beasts H3293 in the forest.

10 H6822 His watchmen [H8802] H5787 are blind H3045 : they are all ignorant [H8804] H483 , they are all dumb H3611 dogs H3201 , they cannot [H8799] H5024 bark [H8800] H1957 ; sleeping [H8802] H7901 , lying down [H8802] H157 , loving [H8802] H5123 to slumber [H8800] .

11 H5794 Yea, they are greedy H5315 H3611 dogs H3045 which can [H8804] H3045 never have [H8804] H7654 enough H7462 , and they are shepherds [H8802] H995 that cannot understand [H8687] H6437 : they all look [H8804] H1870 to their own way H376 , every one H1215 for his gain H7097 , from his quarter.

12 H857 Come [H8798] H3947 ye, say they, I will fetch [H8799] H3196 wine H5433 , and we will fill [H8799] H7941 ourselves with strong drink H4279 ; and to morrow H3117 shall be as this day H3966 , and much H3499 more H1419 abundant.

KJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed. ² 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. ³ 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. ⁴ 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; ⁵ 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. ⁶ 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; ⁷ 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. ⁸ The Lord GOD, which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him. ⁹ All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest. ¹⁰ His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber. 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. 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.
