Let no foreigner who has joined himself to Yahweh speak, saying,
    “Yahweh will surely separate me from his people.”
    Do not let the eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dry tree.”

For Yahweh says, “To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths,
    choose the things that please me,
    and hold fast to my covenant,
I will give them in my house and within my walls a memorial and a name better than of sons and of daughters.
    I will give them an everlasting name that will not be cut off.

Let not the (A)foreigner who has joined himself to the Lord say,
“The Lord will certainly separate me from His people.”
Nor let the (B)eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dry tree.”
For this is what the Lord says:
“To the eunuchs who (C)keep My Sabbaths,
And choose what pleases Me,
And (D)hold firmly to My covenant,
To them I will give in My (E)house and within My (F)walls a memorial,
And a name better than that of sons and daughters;
I will give [a]them an everlasting (G)name which (H)will not be eliminated.
