First Reading – Isaiah 61:1-3A, 6A, 8B-9

¹  The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me; He has sent me to bring glad tidings to the lowly, to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives and release to the prisoners,

²  To announce a year of favor from the LORD and a day of vindication by our God, to comfort all who mourn;

^3A  To place on those who mourn in Zion a diadem instead of ashes, To give them oil of gladness in place of mourning, a glorious mantle instead of a listless spirit.

^6A  You yourselves shall be named priests of the LORD, ministers of our God shall you be called.

^8B  I will give them their recompense faithfully, a lasting covenant I will make with them.

⁹  Their descendants shall be renowned among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; All who see them shall acknowledge them as a race the LORD has blessed.

Gospel Reading for Chrism Mass 2024 – Luke 4:16-21

¹⁶  Jesus came to Nazareth, where he had grown up, and went according to his custom into the synagogue on the Sabbath day. He stood up to read

¹⁷  and was handed a scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the scroll and found the passage where it was written:

¹⁸  The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free,

¹⁹  and to proclaim a year acceptable to the Lord.

²⁰  Rolling up the scroll, he handed it back to the attendant and sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue looked intently at him.

²¹  He said to them, “Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.”
