On the Sabbath day he went to the synagogue as he always did.

He stood up to read. 

The book of Isaiah the prophet was given to him.

“The Spirit of the Lord is on me.

He has chosen me to tell good news to the poor.

He sent me to tell prisoners that they are free and to tell the blind that they can see again.

He sent me to free those who have been treated badly

and to announce that the time has come for the Lord to show his kindness.” 

Jesus closed the book, gave it back to the helper, and sat down.
