Build the Old Waste Places. Thus saith the Lord, Keep ye judgment, and do justice; for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed. Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil. Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the Lord, speak, saying, The Lord hath utterly separated me from his people. . . . 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, everyone that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant; even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer.

"Så siger Herren: Tag vare på ret og øv retfærd! Thi min Frelses komme er nær, min ret skal snart åbenbares. Salig er den; der gør så, det menneske, som fastholder dette: Holder sabbatten hellig og varer sin hånd fra at øve noget ondt. Ej sige den fremmede, som slutter sig til Herren: »Herren vil skille mig ud fra sit folk!« . . . . Og de fremmede, som slutter sig til Herren for at tjene ham og elske hans navn, for at være hans tjenere, alle, som helligholder sabbatten og holder fast ved min pagt, vil jeg bringe til mit hellige bjerg og glæde i mit bedehus.”
