Isaiah 61:1-3
(NIV)
61 The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good
news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim
freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners,[a] 2 to
proclaim the year of the Lord’s
favor
and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, 3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.
