And when he had opened (5660 ) the book , he found (5627 ) the place where it was (5713 ) written (5772 ), * The Spirit of the Lord is upon me , because he hath anointed (5656 ) me to preach the gospel (5733 ) to the poor ; he hath sent (5758 ) me to heal (5664 ) the brokenhearted (5772 ), to preach (5658 ) deliverance to the captives , and recovering of sight to the blind , to set (5658 ) at liberty them that are bruised (5772 ), * To preach (5658 ) the acceptable year of the Lord . * And he closed (5660 ) the book , and he gave it again (5631 ) to the minister , and sat down (5656 ). And the eyes of all them that were (5713 ) in the synagogue were fastened (5723 ) on him . * And he began (5662 ) to say (5721 ) unto them , This day is this scripture fulfilled (5769 ) in your ears . * And all bare him witness (5707 ), and wondered (5707 ) at the gracious words which proceeded (5740 ) out of his mouth .
