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

And a name better than that of sons and daughters;
I will give [a]them an everlasting (G)name which (H)will not be eliminated.
