The Spirit of the Lord\\xa0God\\xa0is upon me, because the\\xa0Lord\\xa0has\\xa0anointed me to bring good news to the poor;\\xa0he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and\\xa0the opening of the prison to those who are bound; 2\\xa0to proclaim the year of the\\xa0Lord's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; 3\\xa0to grant to those who mourn in Zion\\u2014\\xa0to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the\\xa0Lord,\\xa0that he may be glorified. 4\\xa0They shall build up the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, \\xa0the devastations of many generations. Isaiah 61:1-4 (ESV)

Say therefore to the people of Israel,\\xa0\\u2018I am the\\xa0Lord, and\\xa0I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from slavery to them, and\\xa0I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great acts of judgment.\\xa07\\xa0I\\xa0will take you to be my people, and\\xa0I will be your God, and you shall know that\\xa0I am the\\xa0Lord\\xa0your God, who has brought you out\\xa0from under the burdens of the Egyptians.\\xa08\\xa0I will bring you into\\xa0the land that I\\xa0swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. I will give it to you for a possession.\\xa0I am the\\xa0Lord.\\u2019\\u201d\\xa09\\xa0Moses spoke thus to the people of Israel, but they\\xa0did not listen to Moses, because of their broken spirit and harsh slavery.
