Isaiah 56:3-8
English Standard Version
3 Let not (A)the 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 (B)a dry tree.”
4 For thus says the Lord:
“To the eunuchs (C)who keep my Sabbaths,
who choose the things that please me
and hold fast my covenant,
5 (D)I will give in my house and within my walls
a (E)monument and a name
better than sons and daughters;
(F)I will give them an everlasting name
that shall not be cut off.
6 “And (G)the foreigners who join themselves to the Lord,
to minister to him, to love the name of the Lord,
and to be his servants,
everyone (H)who keeps the Sabbath and does not profane it,
and holds fast my covenant—
7 (I)these I will bring to (J)my holy mountain,
and make them joyful in my house of prayer;
(K)their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
will be accepted on my altar;
for (L)my house shall be called a house of prayer
for all peoples.”
8 The Lord God,
(M)who gathers the outcasts of Israel, declares,
(N)“I will gather yet others to him
besides those already gathered.”
Hebrews 11:4-6
English Standard Version
4 By faith (A)Abel offered to God (B)a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, through which he was commended as righteous, God commending him by accepting his gifts. And (C)through his faith, though he died, he (D)still speaks. 5 By faith (E)Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had taken him. Now before he was taken he was commended as having pleased God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God (F)must believe that he exists and (G)that he rewards those who seek him.
