The verse 1 is found in chapter 56 of Isaiah. Justice and covenant faithfulness extend even to foreigners and eunuchs, people who could be excluded from the community. The house of prayer is called a house of prayer for all peoples. The final contrast with selfish shepherds shows that the promised inclusion also requires responsible and faithful leaders.

So spricht der HERR: Haltet das Recht und tut Gerechtigkeit; denn mein Heil ist nahe, daß es komme, und meine Gerechtigkeit, daß sie offenbart werde.
Así dijo Jehová: Guardad derecho, y haced justicia: porque cercana está mi salud para venir, y mi justicia para manifestarse.
Ainsi parle l'Eternel: Observez ce qui est droit, et pratiquez ce qui est juste; Car mon salut ne tardera pas à venir, Et ma justice à se manifester.
COSÌ ha detto il Signore: Osservate quel ch’è diritto, e fate quel ch’è giusto; perciocchè la mia salute è vicina a venire, e la mia giustizia ad essere rivelata.
ASSIM diz o SENHOR: Guardai o juízo, e fazei justiça, porque a minha salvação está prestes a vir, e a minha justiça, para se manifestar.
耶和華如此說: 「你們當守公平,行公義; 因我的救恩臨近, 我的公義將要顯現。
