Isaiah 56:3-7
New King James Version
Isaiah 56:3-7
New King James Version
3 Do not let (A)the son of the foreigner
Who has joined himself to the Lord
Speak, saying,
“The Lord has utterly separated me from His people”;
Nor let the (B)eunuch say,
“Here I am, a dry tree.”
4 For thus says the Lord:
“To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths,
And choose what pleases Me,
And hold fast My covenant,
5 Even to them I will give in (C)My house
And within My walls a place (D)and a name
Better than that of sons and daughters;
I will give [a]them an everlasting name
That shall not be cut off.
6 “Also the sons of the foreigner
Who join themselves to the Lord, to serve Him,
And to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants—
Everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath,
And holds fast My covenant—
7 Even them I will (E)bring to My holy mountain,
And make them joyful in My (F)house of prayer.
(G)Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
Will be (H)accepted on My altar;
For (I)My house shall be called a house of prayer (J)for all nations.”

Isaiah 56:3-7
New International Version
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)
