Isaiah 56
56
1Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), Keep you2f judgment, and do justice: for my salvation [is] near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
2Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) [is] the man [that] does this, and the Son of man [that] lays hold on it; that keeps the Shabbat [Rest] from polluting it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.
3Neither let the son of the stranger, that has joined himself to the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), speak, saying, The Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I [am] a dry tree.
4For thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) unto the eunuchs that keep my Shabbat, and choose [the things] that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
5Even unto them will I give in my house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
6Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), to be his servants, everyone that keeps the Shabbat [Rest] from polluting it, and takes hold of my covenant;
7Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices [shall be] accepted upon my altar; for my house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
8The Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER) which gathers the outcasts of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] says, Yet will I gather [others] to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
9All you2f beasts of the field, come to devour, [yes], all you2f beasts in the forest.
10His watchmen [are] blind: they are all ignorant, they [are] all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
11Yes, [they are] greedy dogs [which] can never have enough, and they [are] shepherds [that] cannot understand: they all look to their own way, everyone for his gain, from his quarter.
12Come you2f, [say they], I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, [and] much more abundant.

Isaiah 56
56
1Yahweh says:
“Maintain justice
and do what is right,
for my salvation is near
and my righteousness will soon be revealed.
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.”
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.”
4For Yahweh says, “To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths,
choose the things that please me,
and hold fast to my covenant,
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.
6Also the foreigners who join themselves to Yahweh
to serve him,
and to love Yahweh’s name,
to be his servants,
everyone who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it,
and holds fast my covenant,
7I will bring these to my holy mountain,
and make them joyful in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar;
for my house will be called a house of prayer for all peoples.”
8The Lord Yahweh, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says,
“I will yet gather others to him,
in addition to his own who are gathered.”
9All you animals of the field,
come to devour,
all you animals in the forest.
10His watchmen are blind.
They are all without knowledge.
They are all mute dogs.
They can’t bark—
dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber.
11Yes, the dogs are greedy.
They can never have enough.
They are shepherds who can’t understand.
They have all turned to their own way,
each one to his gain, from every quarter.
12“Come,” they say, “I will get wine,
and we will fill ourselves with strong drink;
and tomorrow will be as today,
great beyond measure.”
