The Year of Yahweh’s Favor

1 The Spirit of the Lord Yahweh is upon me,
because Yahweh has anointed me,
he has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed,
to bind up ⌞the brokenhearted⌟, ^{▼▼Literally “those broken of heart”}
to ⌞proclaim⌟ ^{▼▼Literally “call”} release to the captives
and liberation to those who are bound,
2 to ⌞proclaim⌟ ^{▼▼Literally “call”} the year of Yahweh’s favor,
and our God’s day of vengeance,
to comfort all those in mourning,
