Isaiah 56:3 in context

  1. 1Yahweh says,
    “Maintain justice
    and do what is right,
    for my salvation is near
    and my righteousness will soon be revealed.
  2. 2Blessed is the man who does this,
    and the son of man who holds it fast;
    who keeps the Sabbath without profaning it
    and keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
  3. 3Let 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.”
  4. 4For Yahweh says, “To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths,
    choose the things that please me,
    and hold fast to my covenant,
  5. 5I 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.
