"The spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, because the Lord has anointed Me to
preach good
tidings to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
to proclaim
liberty
to the
captives, and the opening of the prison to
those
who
are bound;
To proclaim
the acceptable
year of the Lord, and the day
of vngeance of our God;
To comfort all
who mourn, to console
those who
mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the
oil
of
joy for mourning,
the
garment
of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
That they
may
be called trees
of
righteousness,
the
planting of the Lord, that He
may be glorified. And they
shall
rebuild the
old ruins, they
shall raise up the former
desolations, and
they shall
repair the ruined cities,
the desolations
of many generations." Isaiah 61: 1-4
