56The LORD says to his people, "Do what is just and right, for soon I will save you.H559H3068H8104H4941H6213H6666H3444H7138H935H6666H1540 2I will bless those who always observe the Sabbath and do not misuse it. I will bless those who do nothing evil."H835H582H6213H1121H120H2388H8104H7676H2490H8104H3027H6213H7451 3A foreigner who has joined the LORD's people should not say, "The LORD will not let me worship with his people." A man who has been castrated should never think that because he cannot have children, he can never be part of God's people.H1121H5236H3867H3068H559H559H3068H914H914H5971H5631H559H3002H6086 4The LORD says to such a man, "If you honor me by observing the Sabbath and if you do what pleases me and faithfully keep my covenant,H559H3068H5631H8104H7676H977H2654H2388H1285 5then your name will be remembered in my Temple and among my people longer than if you had sons and daughters. You will never be forgotten."H5414H1004H2346H3027H8034H2896H1121H1323H5414H5769H8034H3772 6And the LORD says to those foreigners who become part of his people, who love him and serve him, who observe the Sabbath and faithfully keep his covenant:H1121H5236H3867H3068H8334H157H8034H3068H5650H8104H7676H2490H2388H1285 7"I will bring you to Zion, my sacred hill, give you joy in my house of prayer, and accept the sacrifices you offer on my altar. My Temple will be called a house of prayer for the people of all nations."H935H6944H2022H8055H1004H8605H5930H2077H7522H4196H1004H7121H1004H8605H5971 8The Sovereign LORD, who has brought his people Israel home from exile, has promised that he will bring still other people to join them.H136H3069H6908H1760H3478H5002H6908H6908 9The LORD has told the foreign nations to come like wild animals and devour his people.H2416H7704H857H398H2416H3293 10He says, "All the leaders, who are supposed to warn my people, are blind! They know nothing. They are like watch dogs that don't bark - they only lie around and dream. How they love to sleep!H6822H5787H3045H483H3611H3201H5024H1957H7901H157H5123 11They are like greedy dogs that never get enough. These leaders have no understanding. They each do as they please and seek their own advantage.H5794H5315H3611H3045H3045H7654H7462H995H6437H1870H376H1215H7097 12'Let's get some wine,' these drunkards say, 'and drink all we can hold! Tomorrow will be even better than today!' "H857H3947H3196H5433H7941H4279H3117H3966H3499H1419
