Isaiah 40:4-9
4EveryH3605 valleyH1516 shall be lifted upH5375, and everyH3605 mountainH2022 and hillH1389 made lowH8213; the unevenH6121 ground will becomeH1961 smoothH4334, and the rugged landH7406 a plainH1237.15And the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 will be revealedH1540, and allH3605 humanityH1320 togetherH3162 will see itH7200.”2 ForH3588 the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 has spokenH1696.
6A voiceH6963 saysH559, “Cry outH7121!”And I askedH559, “WhatH4100 should I cry outH7121?”“AllH3605 fleshH1320 is like grassH2682,and allH3605 its gloryH2617 like the flowersH6731 of the fieldH7704.7The grassH2682 withersH3001 and the flowersH6731 fallH5034whenH3588 the breathH7307 of the LORDH3068 blowsH5380 on them;indeedH403, the peopleH5971 are grassH2682.8The grassH2682 withersH3001 and the flowersH6731 fallH5034,but the wordH1697 of our GodH430 standsH6965 foreverH5769.”3
