Isaiah 56
KJV Easy Read Bible

Salvation for the Gentiles

1Thus says the Lord, Keep youp judgment, and do justice: for My salvation is near to come, and My righteousness to be revealed.

2Blessed is the man that does this, and the son of man that lays hold on it; that keeps the sabbath from polluting it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.

3Neither let the son of the stranger, that has joined himself to the Lord, speak, saying, The Lord has utterly separated me from His people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

4For thus says the Lord to the eunuchs that keep My sabbaths, and choose the things that please Me, and take hold of My covenant;   cling firmly to; agreement

5Even to them will I give in My house and inside My walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.

6Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the Lord, to serve Him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants, every one that keeps the sabbath from polluting it, and takes hold of My covenant;

7Even them will I bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer: their burned offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon My altar; for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.   MATT 21:13; MARK 11:17

8The Lord God which gathers the outcasts of Israel says, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered to him.   JOHN 10:16 | Adonaip.f. Jehovahs.f.

Israel’s Irresponsible Leaders

9All youp beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all youp beasts in the forest.

10His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.   voiceless men

11Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.

12Come youp, say they, I will bring wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.
