The spirit of ^(B)wisdom and understanding,
The spirit of counsel and ^(C)might,
The spirit of knowledge and the fear of Yahweh.

From the first I have ^(B)not spoken in secret,
^(C)From the time it took place, I was there.
So now ^(D)Lord Yahweh has sent Me, and His Spirit.”

Because He anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor.
He has sent Me to proclaim release to the captives,
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set free those who are oppressed,
