16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been as a child, and he went, as his way was, into the Synagogue on the Sabbath, and got up to give a reading.
17 And the book of the prophet Isaiah was given to him and, opening the book, he came on the place where it is said,
18 The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because I am marked out by him to give good news to the poor; he has sent me to make well those who are broken-hearted; to say that the prisoners will be let go, and the blind will see, and to make the wounded free from their chains,
19 To give knowledge that the year of the Lord's good pleasure is come.
20 And shutting the book he gave it back to the servant and took his seat: and the eyes of all in the Synagogue were fixed on him.
21 Then he said to them, Today this word has come true in your hearing.
16 Ele foi a Nazaré, onde havia sido criado, e no dia de sábado entrou na sinagoga, como era seu costume. E levantou-se para ler.
17 Foi-lhe entregue o livro do profeta Isaías. Abriu-o e encontrou o lugar onde está escrito:
18 "O Espírito do Senhor está sobre mim, porque ele me ungiu para pregar boas novas aos pobres. Ele me enviou para proclamar liberdade aos presos e recuperação da vista aos cegos, para libertar os oprimidos
19 e proclamar o ano da graça do Senhor".
20 Então ele fechou o livro, devolveu-o ao assistente e assentou-se. Na sinagoga todos tinham os olhos fitos nele;
21 e ele começou a dizer-lhes: "Hoje se cumpriu a Escritura que vocês acabaram de ouvir".
