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.”

3 Let no foreigner(A) who is bound to the Lord say,
“The Lord will surely exclude me from his people.”(B)
And let no eunuch(C) complain,
“I am only a dry tree.”
4 For this is what the Lord says:
“To the eunuchs(D) who keep my Sabbaths,
who choose what pleases me
and hold fast to my covenant(E)—
5 to them I will give within my temple and its walls(F)
a memorial(G) and a name
better than sons and daughters;
I will give them an everlasting name(H)
that will endure forever.(I)
6 And foreigners(J) who bind themselves to the Lord
to minister(K) to him,
to love the name(L) of the Lord,
and to be his servants,
all who keep the Sabbath(M) without desecrating it
and who hold fast to my covenant—
7 these I will bring to my holy mountain(N)
and give them joy in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices(O)
will be accepted on my altar;
for my house will be called
a house of prayer for all nations.(P)”(Q)
