I am no preacher, but, am a prime sinner and living in this world in HIS mercy. For a sinner like me too, when I read “The Holy Bible” KJV,  the following verses were given in the context of “strangers”  from the prophets of Old Testament (KJV).

Isaiah 1:7   Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire:
your land, strangers devour it in your presence,
and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.

Isaiah 2:6   Therefore thou hast forsaken thy people the house of Jacob,
because they be replenished from the east,
and are soothsayers like the Philistines,
and they please themselves in the children of strangers.

Isaiah 5:17   Then shall the lambs feed after their manner,
and the waste places of the fat ones shall strangers eat.

Isaiah 14:1   For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob,
and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land:
and the strangers shall be joined with them,
and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.

Isaiah 25:2   For thou hast made of a city an heap; of a defenced city a ruin:
a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built.

even the heat with the shadow of a cloud:
the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low.

and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away:
yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly.

that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying,
The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people:
neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

Isaiah 56:6   Also 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,
every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it,

and their kings shall minister unto thee:
for in my wrath I smote thee,

and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.

and by the arm of his strength,
Surely I will no more give thy corn to be meat for thine enemies;
and the sons of the stranger shall not drink thy wine,
for the which thou hast laboured:

and thy throat from thirst:
but thou saidst, There is no hope: no;
for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.

and cometh to a prophet to enquire of him concerning me;
I the LORD will answer him by myself:

and have left him.
