Isaiah 56:3-5

^{Tools
3}

Let not the ^(A)foreigner who has joined himself to the Lord say,
“The Lord will surely separate me from His people.”
Nor let the ^(B)eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dry tree.”

^{Tools
4} For thus says the Lord,

“To the eunuchs who ^(C)keep My sabbaths,
And choose what pleases Me,
And ^(D)hold fast My covenant,

^{Tools

To them I will give in My ^(E)house and within My ^(F)walls a memorial,
And a name better than that of sons and daughters;
I will give ^(a)them an everlasting ^(G)name which ^(H)will not be cut off.
