The Good News of Deliverance
61 The spirit of the Lord God is upon me
because the Lord has anointed me;
he has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed,
to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives
and release to the prisoners,(A)
2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,(B)
3 to provide for those who mourn in Zion—
to give them a garland instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
the mantle of praise instead of a faint spirit.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
the planting of the Lord, to display his glory.(C)
Psalm 2:6-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 “I have set my king on Zion, my holy hill.”(A)
7 I will tell of the decree of the Lord:
He said to me, “You are my son;
today I have begotten you.(B)
8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage
and the ends of the earth your possession.(C)
9 You shall break them with a rod of iron
and dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”(D)
10 Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear;
with trembling(E) 12 kiss his feet,[a]
or he will be angry, and you will perish in the way,
for his wrath is quickly kindled.
Happy are all who take refuge in him.(F)
