Isaiah 61:1-3
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Messiah’s Jubilee
61 The Spirit of the Lord God is on Me,(A)
because the Lord has anointed Me
to bring good news to the poor.(B)
He has sent Me to heal[a] the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives
and freedom to the prisoners;(C)
2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor,(D)
and the day of our God’s vengeance;(E)
to comfort(F) all who mourn,
3 to provide for those who mourn in Zion;
to give them a crown of beauty instead of ashes,
festive oil instead of mourning,(G)
and splendid clothes instead of despair.[b]
And they will be called righteous trees,
planted by the Lord
to glorify Him.(H)
