And don’t let the eunuchs say,
‘I’m a dried-up tree with no children and no future.’

and who choose to do what pleases me
and commit their lives to me.
5 I will give them—within the walls of my house—

For the name I give them is an everlasting one.
It will never disappear!
6 “I will also bless the foreigners who commit themselves to the Lord,
who serve him and love his name,
who worship him and do not desecrate the Sabbath day of rest,
and who hold fast to my covenant.
