 56:2 Blessed 835 [is] the man 582 [that] doeth 6213 z8799 this, x2063 and the sonne 1121 of man 120 [that] layeth holde 2388 z8686 on it: that keepeth 8104 z8802 the Sabbath 7676 from polluting 2490 z8763 x4480 it, and keepeth 8104 z8802 his hand 3027 from doing 6213 z8800 x4480 any x3605 euill. 7451

 56:3 ¶ Neither x408 let the sonne 1121 of the stranger, 5236 that hath ioyned y3867 z8738 himselfe x3867 to x413 the LORD, 3068 speake, 559 z8799 saying, 559 z8800 The LORD 3068 hath vtterly y914 z8687 separated 914 z8686 mee from x4480 x5921 his people: 5971 neither x408 let the Eunuch 5631 say, 559 z8799 Behold, x2005 I x589 [am] a drie 3002 tree. 6086

 56:4 For x3588 thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the LORD 3068 vnto the Eunuches 5631 that x834 keep 8104 z8799 x853 my Sabbaths, 7676 and choose 977 z8804 the things that x834 please 2654 z8804 mee, and take hold 2388 z8688 of my couenant: 1285

 56:5 Euen vnto them will I giue 5414 z8804 in mine house, 1004 and within my walles, 2346 a place 3027 and a name 8034 better 2896 then of sonnes 1121 x4480 and of daughters: 1323 x4480 I wil giue 5414 z8799 them an euerlasting 5769 name, 8034 that x834 shal not x3808 be cut off. 3772 z8735

 56:7 Euen them will I bring 935 z8689 to x413 my holy 6944 mountaine, 2022 and make them ioyfull 8055 z8765 in my house 1004 of prayer: 8605 their burnt offerings 5930 and their sacrifices 2077 [shall be] accepted 7522 vpon x5921 mine Altar: 4196 for x3588 mine house 1004 shalbe called 7121 z8735 an house 1004 of prayer 8605 for all x3605 people. 5971

 56:8 The Lord 136 GOD 3069 which gathereth 6908 z8764 the outcasts 1760 z8737 of Israel, 3478 saith, 5002 z8803 Yet x5750 will I gather 6908 z8762 [others] to x5921 him, besides those that are gathered 6908 z8737 vnto him.
