Isaiah 40:4-9

4Every valleyH1516 shall beH1961 exalted, and every mountainH2022 and hillH2022 shall beH1961 made lowH8213; and the uneven shall beH1961 made levelH4334, and the rough places a plainH4334: 5and the gloryH3519 of Jehovah shall be revealedH1540, and all fleshH1320 shall seeH7200 it togetherH3162; for the mouthH6310 of Jehovah hath spokenH1696 it.

6The voiceH6963 of one sayingH559, Cry. And one saidH559, What shall I cry? All fleshH1320 is grassH2682, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flowerH6731 of the fieldH7704. 7The grassH2682 withereth, the flowerH6731 fadeth, because the breathH7307 of Jehovah bloweth upon it; surely the peopleH5971 is grassH2682. 8The grassH2682 withereth, the flowerH6731 fadeth; but the wordH1697 of our GodH430 shall standH6965 foreverH5769.

9O thou that tellest good tidings to ZionH6726, get thee up on a highH1364 mountainH2022; O thou that tellest good tidings to JerusalemH3389, liftH7311 up thy voiceH6963 with strengthH3581; liftH7311 it up, be not afraidH3372; sayH559 unto the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, Behold, your GodH430!
