Isaiah 40:1-11
1ComfortH5162 ye, comfortH5162 ye my peopleH5971, saith your 1GodH430.
2SpeakH1696 to the heartH3820 of JerusalemH3389, and cry unto her, that her time of suffering is accomplished, that her iniquityH5771 is pardoned; for she hath receivedH3947 of Jehovah's handH3027 doubleH3718 for all her sinsH2403.
3The voiceH6963 of one crying in the wildernessH4057: Prepare ye the wayH1870 of Jehovah, makeH3474 straightH3474 in the desertH6160 a highwayH4546 for our 2GodH430!
4Every valleyH1516 shall beH1961 raised up, and every mountainH2022 and hillH2022 shall beH1961 brought lowH8213; and the crooked shall beH1961 made straight, 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.
6A voiceH6963 saith, Cry. And he saith, What shall I cry? — All fleshH1320 is grassH2682, and all the comeliness thereof as the flowerH6731 of the fieldH7704.
7The grassH2682 withereth, the flowerH6731 fadeth, for the breathH7307 of Jehovah bloweth upon it: surely the peopleH5971 is grassH2682.
8The grassH2682 withereth, the flowerH6731 fadeth; but the wordH1697 of our 3GodH430 abideth for everH5769.
9O ZionH6726, that bringest glad tidings, get thee up into a highH1364 mountainH2022; O JerusalemH3389, that bringest glad tidings, liftH7311 up thy voiceH6963 with strengthH3581: liftH7311 it up, be not afraidH3372; sayH559 unto the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, Behold your 4GodH430!
10Behold, the LordH136 Jehovah will comeH935 with might, and his armH2220 shall ruleH4910 for him; behold, his rewardH7939 is with him, and his recompence before him.
11He will feedH7462 his flockH5739 like a shepherdH7462: he will gatherH6908 the lambs with his armH2220, and carryH5375 them in his bosomH2436; he will gently leadH5095 those that give suck.
