17 and was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it is written,

18 (A)“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
    because he has chosen me to bring good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives
    and recovery of sight to the blind,
to set free the oppressed
19     and announce that the time has come
    when the Lord will save his people.”
