1 Thus says Yahweh,
"Keep justice, and do righteousness,
for my salvation is near to come,
and my righteousness to be revealed."
2 Blessed is the man that does this,
and the son of man that holds fast in it,
who keeps Shabbat without profaning it,
and keeps his hand from doing any evil.
3 And let not the son of the foreigner say,
who has joined to Yahweh, saying,
"Yahweh has utterly separated me
from his people."
And let not the Eunich say,
"Behold, I am like a barren tree."
4 For thus says Yahweh,
"To the eunichs who keep my Shabbats,
and choose what pleases me,
and hold fast to my covenant,
5 I will give to them,
in my house and within my walls,
a hand and a name
better than the sons and the daughters.
I will give to them an everlasting name
that will never be cut off."
6 "And the sons of the foreigner
who join to Yahweh
to be his servants,
and to love the name of Yahweh,
and who keep Shabbat without profaning it,
and hold tight to the covenant,
7 them will bring to my Holy Mountain,
and I will make them joyful
in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
will rise up to be accepted upon my altar.
For my house will be called a house of prayer
for all the peoples,"
8 declares the Lord Yahweh
who gathers the outcasts of Israel.
"Yet will I gather others
to those who have been gathered.
9 All that live in the field, come to eat,
all that live in the forest."
10 His watchmen are blind,
they all do not know,
they all are like speechless dogs,
they cannot bark,
they sleeping, lying down,
loving slumber.
11 And the dogs have greedy souls,
they do not know how to be satisfied.
And they are the shepherds
that do not know understanding.
They all turn to their own way,
every one for his own gain
from his territory.
12 "Come, I will fetch wine,
and we will get drunk on strong drink.
And tommorrow will be just like today,
and even much more abundant."
