1  Thus says the Lord:

“Keep justice, and do righteousness,

^wfor soon my salvation will come,

and my righteousness be revealed.

6  “And ^ythe foreigners who join themselves to the Lord,

to minister to him, to love the name of the Lord,

and to be his servants,

everyone ^xwho keeps the Sabbath and does not profane it,

and holds fast my covenant—

7  ^dthese I will bring to ^emy holy mountain,

and make them joyful in my house of prayer;

^ftheir burnt offerings and their sacrifices

will be accepted on my altar;

for ^gmy house shall be called a house of prayer

for all peoples.”

8  The Lord God,

^hwho gathers the outcasts of Israel, declares,

ⁱ“I will gather yet others to him

besides those already gathered.”
