New American Bible (Revised Edition)
6 And foreigners who join themselves to the Lord,
to minister to him,
To love the name of the Lord,
to become his servants—
All who keep the sabbath without profaning it
and hold fast to my covenant,
7 [a]Them I will bring to my holy mountain
and make them joyful in my house of prayer;
Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
will be acceptable on my altar,
For my house shall be called
a house of prayer for all peoples.(A)
Footnotes
- 56:7 This verse continues the theme of universalism found in Is 49:6. As Israel was to be “a light to the nations” so that God’s “salvation may reach to the ends of the earth,” so now does that come to pass as foreigners, faithful to the divine commands, are brought to the Temple by God and joined to the covenant community of Israel.
Isaiah 56:6-7
New International Version
6 And foreigners(A) who bind themselves to the Lord
to minister(B) to him,
to love the name(C) of the Lord,
and to be his servants,
all who keep the Sabbath(D) without desecrating it
and who hold fast to my covenant—
7 these I will bring to my holy mountain(E)
and give them joy in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices(F)
will be accepted on my altar;
for my house will be called
a house of prayer for all nations.(G)”(H)
