Isaiah 56:6-8
New American Standard Bible
6 “Also the (A)foreigners who join themselves to the Lord,
To attend to His service and to love the name of the Lord,
To be His servants, every one who (B)keeps the Sabbath so as not to profane it,
And holds firmly to My covenant;
7 Even (C)those I will bring to My (D)holy mountain,
And (E)make them joyful in My house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be acceptable on (F)My altar;
For (G)My house will be called a house of prayer for all the peoples.”
8 The Lord [a]God, who (H)gathers the dispersed of Israel, declares,
“I will yet gather (I)others to [b]them, to those already gathered.”

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 And the foreigners who join themselves to the Lord,
to minister to him, to love the name of the Lord,
and to be his servants,
all who keep the Sabbath and do not profane it
and hold fast my covenant—(A)
7 these I will bring to my holy mountain
and make them joyful in my house of prayer;
their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
will be accepted on my altar,
for my house shall be called a house of prayer
for all peoples.(B)
8 Thus says the Lord God,
who gathers the outcasts of Israel:
I will gather others to them
besides those already gathered.[a](C)
