Berean Standard Bible
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
This
is
what
the
LORD
says
: “Maintain
justice
and do what
is
right
, for My salvation is
coming
soon
, and My righteousness will
be revealed.
Thus
said
Jehovah
: `Keep
ye
judgment,
and do righteousness
, For near
`is'
My salvation to
come
, And My righteousness to
be revealed. '
Blessed
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. ”
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.
Let no
foreigner
who has
joined himself
to
the
LORD
say
, “The
LORD
will
utterly
exclude
me from His people. ”
And
let the eunuch not
say
, “
I am but
a dry
tree .”
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,'
For this
is
what
the
LORD
says:
“To
the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, who
choose
what
pleases
Me
and hold fast
to
My covenant —
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 :
I will
give
them ,
in My house and within My walls ,
a memorial
and a name better than that
of
sons and daughters .
I will
give them
an
everlasting
name
that will
not be
cut off.
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.
And the foreigners
who join
themselves
to
the
LORD
to minister
to Him, to love the name of the
LORD
, and
to be His
servants —
all
who
keep
the Sabbath without
profaning
it and who
hold fast
to
My covenant —
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 .
I will
bring
them to
My holy mountain and make
them joyful
in My house of prayer .
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will
be
accepted
on My
altar, for My house will
be
called
a house of prayer for all the nations
. ”
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
.
Thus
declares
the Lord GOD
, who gathers
the dispersed
of Israel: “
I will
gather to them
still
others
besides
those
already
gathered. ”
An
affirmation
of
the Lord Jehovah
, Who is
gathering
the outcasts
of Israel: `Again
I gather to him
--
to
his
gathered ones
. '
Come,
all
you
beasts
of the field ;
eat
greedily
, all
you
beasts
of
the forest.
Every
beast
of the field, Come
to
devour,
every
beast
in
the forest.
Israel’s
watchmen
are
blind ,
they
are all oblivious;
they are
all mute
dogs, they cannot
bark;
they
are dreamers
lying around
, loving to slumber.
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.
Like
ravenous
dogs, they are
never
satisfied.
They are shepherds with
no
discernment;
they all turn
to their own way, each one
seeking
his own
gain:
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
:
“
Come, let
me
get
the
wine, let
us
imbibe
the
strong drink, and tomorrow
will
be
like
today
, only
far
better
! ”
`
Come ye
, I
take
wine, And
we
drink,
quaff
strong drink, And as
this
day
hath
been
to-morrow
, Great
--
exceeding
abundant
! '
