Isaiah 61:1-4

1The SpiritH7307 of the Lord Jehovah is upon me; because Jehovah hath anointedH4886 me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sentH7971 me to bindH631 up the broken-hearted, to proclaimH7121 libertyH1865 to the captivesH7617, and the opening of the prison to them that are boundH631; 2to proclaimH7121 the yearH8141 of Jehovah’s favorH7522, and the dayH3117 of vengeanceH5359 of our GodH430; to comfortH5162 all that mournH57; 3to appointH7760 unto them that mournH57 in ZionH6726, to giveH5414 unto them a garland for ashesH665, the oilH8081 of joyH8342 for mourningH60, the garment of praiseH8416 for the spiritH7307 of heaviness; that they may be calledH7121 trees of righteousnessH6664, the plantingH4302 of Jehovah, that he may be glorifiedH6286.

4And they shall buildH1129 the old wastesH2723, they shall raiseH6965 up the formerH7223 desolations, and they shall repair the wasteH2723 citiesH5892, the desolations of many generationsH1755.
