New Testament

Isaiah 56:1-5 New Century Version (NCV)

1. This is what the Lord says:“Give justice to all people,and do what is right,because my salvation will come to you soon.Soon everyone will know that I do what is right.

2. The person who obeys the law about the Sabbathwill be blessed,and the person who does no evilwill be blessed.”

3. Foreigners who have joined the Lord should not say,“The Lord will not accept me with his people.”The eunuch should not say,“Because I cannot have children, the Lord will not accept me.”

4. This is what the Lord says:“The eunuchs should obey the law about the Sabbathand do what I wantand keep my agreement.

5. If they do, I will make their names rememberedwithin my Temple and its walls.It will be better for them than children.I will give them a name that will last forever,that will never be forgotten.
