Luke 4:18-19
New King James Version
18 “The(A) Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me [a]to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To (B)set at liberty those who are [b]oppressed;
19 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”
Isaiah 49:8-9
New King James Version
8 Thus says the Lord:
“In an (A)acceptable[a] time I have heard You,
And in the day of salvation I have helped You;
I will [b]preserve You (B)and give You
As a covenant to the people,
To restore the earth,
To cause them to inherit the desolate [c]heritages;
9 That You may say (C)to the prisoners, ‘Go forth,’
To those who are in darkness, ‘Show yourselves.’
“They shall feed along the roads,
And their pastures shall be on all desolate heights.
