Because Adonai has anointed me to announce good news to the poor.
He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted; to proclaim freedom to the captives, to let out into the light those bound in the dark; to proclaim the year of favour of Adonai and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn, yes, provide for those in Tziyon who mourn, giving them garlands instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, a cloak of praise instead of heavy spirit, so that they will be called oaks of righteousness planted by Adnonai, in which he takes pride.
They will rebuild the ancient ruins, restore sites long destroyed; they will renew the ruined cities, destroyed many generations ago.
Strangers will stand and feed your flocks, foreigners plow your land and tend your vines; but you will be called cohanim of Adonai, spoken of a ministers of our God.
You will feed on the wealth of nations, and revel in their riches.
Because of your shame, which was doubled and because they cried, "They deserve disgrace", therefore in their land what they own will be double and joy forever will be theirs.
"For I, Adonai, love justicel
I hate robbery for burn offering.
So I will be faithful to reward them and make and eternal covenant with them"
Their descendants will be known among the nations their offspring among the peoples; all who see them will acknowledge that they are the seed Adonai has blessed.
