Välsignelse till alla folk
56 Så säger Herren:
”Bevara det som är rätt
och gör det som är rättfärdigt,
för min räddning kommer snart,
och min rättfärdighet ska uppenbaras.
2 Lycklig är den som gör detta,
den som håller fast vid det,
den som håller sabbaten
och inte vanhelgar den,
den som håller sig ifrån att handla orätt.”
3 Främlingen som slutit sig till Herren
ska inte säga:
”Herren håller mig utanför sitt folk.”
Inte heller ska den kastrerade säga:
”Jag är bara ett förtorkat träd.”
4 För så säger Herren:
”De kastrerade som håller sabbaten,
de som gör vad som behagar mig
och håller fast vid mitt förbund,
5 dem ska jag i mitt hus och inom mina väggar
ge ett minnesmärke och ett namn
som är förmer än söner och döttrar.
Jag ska ge dem ett evigt, oförgängligt namn.
6 Främlingar som sluter sig till Herren
och tjänar honom och älskar Herrens namn
och vill vara hans tjänare,
de som håller sabbaten och inte vanhelgar den
och som håller fast vid mitt förbund,
7 dem ska jag föra till mitt heliga berg
och låta dem glädjas i mitt bönehus.
Jag ska ta emot deras brännoffer och slaktoffer på mitt altare,
för mitt hus ska kallas ett bönehus för alla folk.”
8 Herren, Herren, som samlar dem
som förskingrats från Israel, säger:
”Jag ska samla ännu fler
tillsammans med de redan samlade.”
De trolösa ledarna
9 Kom och ät, alla vilda djur,
kom, alla djur i skogen!
10 Israels vakter är blinda
och begriper ingenting.
De är hundar som inte kan skälla,
de ligger och drömmer och älskar att sova.
11 De är glupska hundar
och blir aldrig mätta.
De är herdar som inget fattar,
de går alla sin egen väg
och var och en tänker bara på sig och sitt
och är bara ute efter egen vinning.
12 ”Kom, jag ska hämta vin,
vi ställer till en dryckesfest!
I morgon blir det som idag,
eller till och med ännu bättre!”

Salvation for Others
56 This is what the Lord says:
“Maintain justice(A)
and do what is right,(B)
for my salvation(C) is close at hand
and my righteousness(D) will soon be revealed.
2 Blessed(E) is the one who does this—
the person who holds it fast,
who keeps the Sabbath(F) without desecrating it,
and keeps their hands from doing any evil.”
3 Let no foreigner(G) who is bound to the Lord say,
“The Lord will surely exclude me from his people.”(H)
And let no eunuch(I) complain,
“I am only a dry tree.”
4 For this is what the Lord says:
“To the eunuchs(J) who keep my Sabbaths,
who choose what pleases me
and hold fast to my covenant(K)—
5 to them I will give within my temple and its walls(L)
a memorial(M) and a name
better than sons and daughters;
I will give them an everlasting name(N)
that will endure forever.(O)
6 And foreigners(P) who bind themselves to the Lord
to minister(Q) to him,
to love the name(R) of the Lord,
and to be his servants,
all who keep the Sabbath(S) without desecrating it
and who hold fast to my covenant—
7 these I will bring to my holy mountain(T)
and give them joy in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices(U)
will be accepted on my altar;
for my house will be called
a house of prayer for all nations.(V)”(W)
8 The Sovereign Lord declares—
he who gathers the exiles of Israel:
“I will gather(X) still others to them
besides those already gathered.”
God’s Accusation Against the Wicked
9 Come, all you beasts of the field,(Y)
come and devour, all you beasts of the forest!
10 Israel’s watchmen(Z) are blind,
they all lack knowledge;(AA)
they are all mute dogs,
they cannot bark;
they lie around and dream,
they love to sleep.(AB)
11 They are dogs with mighty appetites;
they never have enough.
They are shepherds(AC) who lack understanding;(AD)
they all turn to their own way,(AE)
they seek their own gain.(AF)
12 “Come,” each one cries, “let me get wine!(AG)
Let us drink our fill of beer!
And tomorrow will be like today,
or even far better.”(AH)

Salvation for Foreigners
56 Thus says the Lord:
“Keep justice, and do righteousness,
(A)for soon my salvation will come,
and my righteousness be revealed.
2 Blessed is the man who does this,
and the son of man who holds it fast,
(B)who keeps the Sabbath, not profaning it,
and keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
3 Let not (C)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 (D)a dry tree.”
4 For thus says the Lord:
“To the eunuchs (E)who keep my Sabbaths,
who choose the things that please me
and hold fast my covenant,
5 (F)I will give in my house and within my walls
a (G)monument and a name
better than sons and daughters;
(H)I will give them an everlasting name
that shall not be cut off.
6 “And (I)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 (J)who keeps the Sabbath and does not profane it,
and holds fast my covenant—
7 (K)these I will bring to (L)my holy mountain,
and make them joyful in my house of prayer;
(M)their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
will be accepted on my altar;
for (N)my house shall be called a house of prayer
for all peoples.”
8 The Lord God,
(O)who gathers the outcasts of Israel, declares,
(P)“I will gather yet others to him
besides those already gathered.”
Israel's Irresponsible Leaders
9 (Q)All you beasts of the field, come to devour—
all you beasts in the forest.
10 (R)His watchmen are blind;
they are all without knowledge;
they are all silent (S)dogs;
they cannot bark,
dreaming, lying down,
loving to slumber.
11 (T)The dogs have a mighty appetite;
they never have enough.
But (U)they are shepherds who have no understanding;
they have all turned to their own way,
(V)each to his own gain, one and all.
12 (W)“Come,” they say, “let me get wine;
let us fill ourselves with strong drink;
(X)and tomorrow will be like this day,
great beyond measure.”
