No foreigner bound to Jehovah should say: 'Jehovah will surely exclude (separate) me from his people. No eunuch should complain: I am only a dry tree.' For Jehovah says: To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths, who choose what pleases me. They hold fast to my covenant. I will give to those within my Temple and its walls a memorial and a name that is better than sons and daughters. I will give them an everlasting name that will not be cut off. read more.
Foreigners have become allied with Jehovah, to serve Jehovah, to love the name of Jehovah, and to worship him. They keep the Sabbath without desecrating it and hold fast to my covenant. I will bring them to my holy mountain and give them joy in my house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will be accepted on my altar. My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations.
