King James Version

aThe Spirit of the Lord God is upon me;

Because the Lord bhath anointed me cto preach good tidings unto dthe meek;

He hath sent me eto bind up fthe brokenhearted,

gTo proclaim liberty to the captives,

And hthe opening of the prison to them that are bound;

2  iTo proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord,

And kthe day of vengeance of our God;

lTo comfort all that mourn;

3  To appoint unto lthem that mourn in Zion,

mTo give unto them nbeauty for ashes,

oThe oil of joy for mourning,

The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;

That they might be called ptrees of righteousness,

qThe planting of the Lord, qrthat he might be glorified.

4  And sthey shall build the old wastes,

They shall raise up the former desolations,

And they shall repair the waste cities,

tThe desolations of many generations.

5  And ustrangers shall stand and feed your flocks,

And vthe sons of uthe alien shall be wyour plowmen and your vinedressers.

6  But xye shall be named the Priests of the Lord:

Men shall call you the Ministers of our God:

yYe shall eat the riches of the Gentiles,

And zin their glory shall ye boast yourselves.

7  For your shame aye shall have double;

And for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion:

bTherefore in their land athey shall possess the double:

Everlasting joy shall be unto them.
