The Good News of Salvation
61 “The (A)Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me,
Because the Lord (B)has anointed Me
To preach good tidings to the poor;
He has sent Me (C)to [a]heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim (D)liberty to the captives,
And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
2 (E)To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord,
And (F)the day of vengeance of our God;
(G)To comfort all who mourn,
3 To [b]console those who mourn in Zion,
(H)To give them beauty for ashes,
The oil of joy for mourning,
The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
That they may be called trees of righteousness,
(I)The planting of the Lord, (J)that He may be glorified.”

12 Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, (A)who stood afar off. 13 And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice (C)glorified God, 16 and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a (D)Samaritan.
17 So Jesus answered and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? 18 Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?” 19 (E)And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”
