Paragraph:

714 This is why Christ inaugurates the proclamation of the Good News by making his own the following passage from Isaiah: 84

The Spirit of the LORD God is upon me,
because the LORD has anointed me
to bring good tidings to the afflicted;
he has sent me to bind up the broken hearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
to proclaim the year of the LORD'S favor.
