17the scroll ofG975 theG3588 prophetG4396 IsaiahG2268 was handedG1929 to HimG846. UnrollingG380 it, He foundG2147 theG3588 placeG5117 whereG3739 it wasG1510 writtenG1125:

18“The SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962 is onG1909 MeG1473,becauseG1752 He has anointedG5548 MeG1473to preach good newsG2097 to the poorG4434.He has sentG649 MeG1473 to proclaimG2784 libertyG859 to the captivesG1641andG2532 recovery of sightG309 to the blindG5185,to releaseG649G1722G859 the oppressedG2352,19to proclaimG2784 the yearG1763 of the Lord’sG2962 favorG1184.”2

20ThenG2532 He rolled upG4428 theG3588 scrollG975, returnedG591 it to theG3588 attendantG5257, and sat downG2523.
