16 He came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. He entered, as was his custom, into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read. 17 The book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. He opened the book, and found the place where it was written,
18 "The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to heal the broken hearted,
to proclaim release to the captives,
recovering of sight to the blind,
to deliver those who are crushed,
19 and to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."
20 He closed the book, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 He began to tell them, "Today, this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing."
16 E venne in Nazaret, ove era stato allevato; ed entrò, come era usato, in giorno di sabato, nella sinagoga; e si levò per leggere.
17 E gli fu dato in mano il libro del profeta Isaia; e, spiegato il libro, trovò quel luogo dove era scritto:
18 Lo Spirito del Signore è sopra me; perciocchè egli mi ha unto; egli mi ha mandato per evangelizzare a’ poveri, per guarire i contriti di cuore;
19 per bandir liberazione a’ prigioni, e racquisto della vista a’ ciechi; per mandarne in libertà i fiaccati, e per predicar l’anno accettevole del Signore.
20 Poi, ripiegato il libro, e rendutolo al ministro, si pose a sedere; e gli occhi di tutti coloro ch’erano nella sinagoga erano affissati in lui.
21 Ed egli prese a dir loro: Questa scrittura è oggi adempiuta ne’ vostri orecchi.
