Dual Panel1"Be just and fair to all," says the LORD. "Do what is right and good, for I am coming soon to rescue you.
2Blessed are those who are careful to do this. Blessed are those who honor my Sabbath days of rest by refusing to work. And blessed are those who keep themselves from doing wrong.
3"And my blessings are for Gentiles, too, when they commit themselves to the LORD. Do not let them think that I consider them second–class citizens. And my blessings are also for the eunuchs. They are as much mine as anyone else.
4For I say this to the eunuchs who keep my Sabbath days holy, who choose to do what pleases me and commit their lives to me:
5I will give them––in my house, within my walls––a memorial and a name far greater than the honor they would have received by having sons and daughters. For the name I give them is an everlasting one. It will never disappear!
6"I will also bless the Gentiles who commit themselves to the LORD and serve him and love his name, who worship him and do not desecrate the Sabbath day of rest, and who have accepted his covenant.
7I will bring them also to my holy mountain of Jerusalem and will fill them with joy in my house of prayer. I will accept their burnt offerings and sacrifices, because my Temple will be called a house of prayer for all nations.
8For the Sovereign LORD, who brings back the outcasts of Israel, says: I will bring others, too, besides my people Israel."
9Come, wild animals of the field! Come, wild animals of the forest! Come and devour my people!
10For the leaders of my people––the LORD’s watchmen, his shepherds––are blind to every danger. They are like silent watchdogs that give no warning when danger comes. They love to lie around, sleeping and dreaming.
11And they are as greedy as dogs, never satisfied. They are stupid shepherds, all following their own path, all of them intent on personal gain.
12"Come," they say. "We will get some wine and have a party. Let’s all get drunk. Let this go on and on, and tomorrow will be even better."
