Translation:

Isaiah 61

1 The Year of the Lord's Favor

1 The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, 1 because the Lord has anointed me 1 to preach good news to the poor. 1 He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, 1 to proclaim freedom for the captives 1 and release from darkness for the prisoners,[a]

2 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor 2 and the day of vengeance of our God, 2 to comfort all who mourn, 3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion— 3 to bestow on them a crown of beauty 3 instead of ashes, 3 the oil of gladness 3 instead of mourning, 3 and a garment of praise 3 instead of a spirit of despair. 3 They will be called oaks of righteousness, 3 a planting of the Lord 3 for the display of his splendor.
