ylt @Isaiah:56:1 @Thus said Jehovah : 'Keep ye judgment , and do righteousness , For near [is ] My salvation to come , And My righteousness to be revealed .' ylt @Isaiah:56:2 @O the happiness of a man who doth this , And of a son of man who keepeth hold on it , Keeping the sabbath from polluting it , And keeping his hand from doing any evil . ylt @Isaiah:56:3 @Nor speak let a son of the stranger , Who is joined unto Jehovah , saying : 'Jehovah doth certainly separate me from His people .' Nor say let the eunuch , 'Lo , I am a tree dried up ,' ylt @Isaiah:56:4 @For thus said Jehovah of the eunuchs , Who do keep My sabbaths , And have fixed on that which I desired , And are keeping hold on My covenant : ylt @Isaiah:56:5 @I have given to them in My house , And within My walls a station and a name , Better than sons and than daughters , A name age-during I give to him That is not cut off . ylt @Isaiah:56:6 @And sons of the stranger , who are joined to Jehovah , To serve Him , and to love the name of Jehovah , To be to Him for servants , Every keeper of the sabbath from polluting it , And those keeping hold on My covenant . ylt @Isaiah:56:7 @I have brought them unto My holy mountain , And caused them to rejoice in My house of prayer , Their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices [Are ] for a pleasing thing on Mine altar , For My house , 'A house of prayer ,' Is called for all the peoples . ylt @Isaiah:56:8 @An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah , Who is gathering the outcasts of Israel : 'Again I gather to him -- to his gathered ones .' ylt @Isaiah:56:9 @Every beast of the field , Come to devour , every beast in the forest . ylt @Isaiah:56:10 @Blind [are ] his watchmen -- all of them , They have not known , All of them [are ] dumb dogs , they are not able to bark , Dozing , lying down , loving to slumber . ylt @Isaiah:56:11 @And the dogs [are ] strong of desire , They have not known sufficiency , And they [are ] shepherds ! They have not known understanding , All of them to their own way they did turn , Each to his dishonest gain from his quarter : ylt @Isaiah:56:12 @'Come ye , I take wine , And we drink , quaff strong drink , And as this day hath been to-morrow , Great -- exceeding abundant !'
