The Year of the Lord’s Favor

161:1 ch. 11:2; 42:1; 48:16; Cited Luke 4:18, 19The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,

because the Lord has 61:1 Ps. 45:7anointed me

to bring good news to the poor;61:1 Or afflicted

he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,

to proclaim liberty to the captives,

and 61:1 ch. 45:13; Ps. 146:7the opening of the prison to those who are bound;61:1 Or the opening [of the eyes] to those who are blind; Septuagint and recovery of sight to the blind

261:2 [Lev. 25:10] to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor,

61:2 ch. 34:8and the day of vengeance of our God;

to comfort all who mourn;

3to grant to those who mourn in Zion—

61:3 ver. 10; [ch. 28:5] to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes,

61:3 Ps. 45:7; Heb. 1:9the oil of gladness instead of mourning,

the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit;

61:3 [ch. 60:21] that they may be called oaks of righteousness,

the planting of the Lord, 61:3 John 15:8that he may be glorified.61:3 Or that he may display his beauty

461:4 Amos 9:14; See ch. 58:12They shall build up the ancient ruins;

they shall raise up the former devastations;

they shall repair the ruined cities,

the devastations of many generations.

561:5 ch. 14:2; [ch. 60:10]Strangers shall stand and tend your flocks;

foreigners shall be your plowmen and vinedressers;

661:6 Ex. 19:6; 1 Pet. 2:9; [Joel 1:9] but you shall be called the priests of the Lord;

they shall speak of you as the ministers of our God;

61:6 ch. 60:5, 11, 16you shall eat the wealth of the nations,

and in their glory you shall boast.

761:7 ch. 40:2; [ch. 54:7, 8; Zech. 9:12]Instead of your shame there shall be a double portion;

instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their lot;

therefore in their land they shall possess a double portion;

they shall have everlasting joy.

861:8 Ps. 11:7; [ch. 59:15] For I the Lord love justice;

I hate robbery and wrong;61:8 Or robbery with a burnt offering

61:8 ch. 40:10; 49:4I will faithfully give them their recompense,

61:8 See ch. 55:3and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.

9Their offspring shall be known among the nations,

and their descendants in the midst of the peoples;

all who see them shall acknowledge them,

that they are an offspring the Lord has blessed.

1061:10 Hab. 3:18I will greatly rejoice in the Lord;

my soul shall exult in my God,

61:10 [ch. 59:17; Zech. 3:4] for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation;

he has covered me with the robe of righteousness,

as a bridegroom decks himself 61:10 ver. 3like a priest with a beautiful headdress,

61:10 ch. 49:18; Rev. 21:2and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

11For as the earth brings forth its sprouts,

and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up,

so the Lord God will cause 61:11 [ch. 60:18; 62:7]righteousness and praise

to sprout up before all the nations.
