"The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed
me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the
brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from
darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and
provide for those who grieve in Zion- to bestow on them a crown of
beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a
garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called
oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his
splendor." Isaiah 61:1-3
"Shout aloud and sing for joy, people of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel among you."
Isaiah 12:6
