The Spirit of the LordGOD is upon me, Because the LORD has anointed me To bring good news to the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted*, To proclaimliberty to captives And freedom to prisoners;

To grant those who mourn in Zion, Giving them a garlandinstead of ashes, The oil of gladnessinstead of mourning, The mantle of praiseinstead of a spirit of fainting. So they will be calledoaks of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.
