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.
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.”

The Covenant Extended to the Righteous

56 For[a] this is what the Lord says:
    “Maintain justice, and do what is right,
for soon my salvation will come,
    and soon my deliverance will be revealed.
Blessed is the one who does this,
    and the person that holds it fast,
who observes the Sabbath without profaning it,
    and restrains his hands[b] from practicing any evil.
