Isaiah 61 NKJV
The Good News of Salvation
1
“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 [a]heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives,
And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
2
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, And the day of vengeance of our God;
To comfort all who mourn,
3
To [b]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.”
