Because the Lord (B)has anointed Me

And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;

And (F)the day of vengeance of our God;

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.”
