Isaiah 56:3 Douay-Rheims

And let not the son of the stranger, that adhereth to the Lord, speak, saying: The Lord will divide and separate me from his people. And let not the eunuch say: Behold I am a dry tree.

Rashi

1040–1105 Jewish

“The Lord will surely separate me from His people,” Why should I become converted? Will not the Holy One, blessed be He, separate me from His people when He pays their reward. Let not the eunnuch say Why should I better my ways and my deeds? I am like a withered tree, for lack of remembrance.
