yes, but he doesn't say i am the lord, he says the Spirit of the Lord as in the third person point of view.Anyone can do these things.
But, interesting subtle difference between Isaiah's version and Jesus'. Also, Isaiah names the Lord, YHVH. Yeshua/Jesus does not.

I don't think he was referring to himself.yes, but he doesn't say i am the lord, he says the Spirit of the Lord as in the third person point of view.
the prophet was to use the name when he she was sent. so anyone picking that scroll up and reading and understanding it, would have said the same about self. isaiah was speaking of being annointed himself, not another.Obviously when Jesus picked up the scroll of Isaiah to read it in the synagogue, he read what was what we today call Isaiah 61:1, 2, where God’s name appears more than once. (Luke 4:16-21) Would he have refused to pronounce the divine name there, substituting “Lord” or “God”? Of course not. That would have meant following the unscriptural tradition of the Jewish religious leaders. But of Jesus it was said: "for he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.” (Matthew 7:29)
In fact, as we learned earlier, he taught his followers to pray to God: “hallowed by thy name.” (Matthew 6:9) And in prayer on the night before his execution, he said to his Father: “I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. . . . Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one.” (John 17:6; 11)
So the "Lord" who sent Jesus was his Father, whose spirit anointed his son as the Christ at his baptism.

the prophets were called the sons of god, they all took the name. it was required; when being sent.
fyi,
John 1:12
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Matthew 5:9
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
this is why you are to pray, "Our Father".
as i've explained to you. isaiah was speaking of himself. any prophet that was sent, was required to use the name to verify what Spirit sent him. the Spirit of God sent Isaiah. the Spirit of God sent Jesus, Jesus was a prophet.Isaiah was not just prophesying about himself. Jesus words confirm that the prophesy was fulfilled in himself.

isaiah speaks of the name:
isaiah 66:
5 Hear the word of the Lord, you that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
jesus even tells you this.
John 5:43
I am come in my Father's name, and you receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him you will receive.
this is why the prophet's are called the sons of god, because they took the Father's name. they understood what it meant. malachi even refers to god as the Father of all mankind in malachi 2:10
these are those of the Father too:
Revelation 14:1
And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.

isaiah spoke the truth about himself. jesus spoke the truth about himself too.
