115 T Because the LORD hath an ointed me,
HE Spirit of the LORD JE HOVIH is up on me;
To preach glad tidings | to the | meek.

2 He hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives,

And the opening of the prison to the | bound:

To comfort all that mourn :

To give unto them beauty for ashes,

The oil of joy for | mourning:

The planting of the LORD, that He might be glorified.

The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;

In the fear of the LORD.
