Isaiah 61
English Standard Version
The Year of the Lord's Favor
61 (A)The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,
because the Lord has (B)anointed me
to bring good news to the poor;[a]
he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and (C)the opening of the prison to those who are bound;[b]
2 (D)to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor,
(E)and the day of vengeance of our God;
to comfort all who mourn;
3 to grant to those who mourn in Zion—
(F)to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes,
(G)the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit;
(H)that they may be called oaks of righteousness,
the planting of the Lord, (I)that he may be glorified.[c]
4 (J)They shall build up the ancient ruins;
they shall raise up the former devastations;
they shall repair the ruined cities,
the devastations of many generations.
5 (K)Strangers shall stand and tend your flocks;
foreigners shall be your plowmen and vinedressers;
6 (L)but you shall be called the priests of the Lord;
they shall speak of you as the ministers of our God;
(M)you shall eat the wealth of the nations,
and in their glory you shall boast.
7 (N)Instead of your shame there shall be a double portion;
instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their lot;
therefore in their land they shall possess a double portion;
they shall have everlasting joy.
8 (O)For I the Lord love justice;
I hate robbery and wrong;[d]
(P)I will faithfully give them their recompense,
(Q)and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 Their offspring shall be known among the nations,
and their descendants in the midst of the peoples;
all who see them shall acknowledge them,
that they are an offspring the Lord has blessed.
10 (R)I will greatly rejoice in the Lord;
my soul shall exult in my God,
(S)for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation;
he has covered me with the robe of righteousness,
as a bridegroom decks himself (T)like a priest with a beautiful headdress,
(U)and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11 For as the earth brings forth its sprouts,
and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up,
so the Lord God will cause (V)righteousness and praise
to sprout up before all the nations.

La Palabra (Hispanoamérica)
El ungido, mensajero de liberación y de consuelo
61 El espíritu del Señor Dios me acompaña,
pues el propio Señor me ha ungido,
me ha enviado a dar la buena noticia a los pobres,
a vendar los corazones destrozados,
a proclamar la libertad a los cautivos,
a gritar la liberación a los prisioneros,
2 a proclamar un año de gracia del Señor
y un día de venganza de parte de nuestro Dios;
a dar consuelo a los que están de luto,
3 a cubrirlos de honor en lugar de polvo,
de perfume de fiesta en lugar de penas,
de traje festivo en lugar de abatimiento.
Los llamarán “robles fruto de la justicia”,
plantío para gloria del Señor.
4 Reconstruirán las ruinas antiguas,
reedificarán los escombros de antaño,
renovarán las ciudades devastadas,
los escombros abandonados por generaciones.
5 Se verán extraños pastoreando su ganado,
extranjeros trabajarán sus campos y viñas,
6 y a ustedes los proclamarán sacerdotes del Señor,
les llamarán servidores de nuestro Dios.
Los harán con la riqueza de las naciones,
sus posesiones pasarán a las manos de ustedes.
7 A cambio de su vergüenza doblada,
hecha de ultrajes y de oprobio,
poseerán doble recompensa en su tierra,
serán felices para siempre.
8 Yo, el Señor, amo la justicia,
detesto el pillaje y el crimen;
les daré cumplida recompensa,
haré con ellos una alianza eterna.
9 Sus hijos serán famosos entre las naciones,
sus vástagos entre todos los pueblos.
Todos los que los vean reconocerán
que son la estirpe bendita del Señor.
Himno de victoria
10 Reboso de dicha en el Señor,
me alegro animoso en mi Dios,
que me ha puesto un vestido de fiesta,
me ha envuelto en un manto de victoria,
como un novio que se pone la corona,
como novia que se viste sus atuendos.
11 Igual que la tierra produce sus renuevos,
lo mismo que germinan brotes en un jardín,
así hace germinar el Señor Dios la liberación
y el canto de triunfo ante todos los pueblos.
