The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
