    and recovering of sight to the blind,
    to set at liberty those who are oppressed.
  • The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,
    because the Lord has anointed me
    to bring good news to the poor;
    he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
    to proclaim liberty to the captives,
    and the opening of the prison to those who are bound.
  • Arise, O Lord; O God, lift up your hand;
    forget not the afflicted.
