Isaiah 40:3-7

3The voice of one crying in the wilderness: “Prepare the way of the Lord; Make straight in the desert A highway for our God.

4Every valley shall be exalted And every mountain and hill brought low; The crooked places shall be made straight And the rough places smooth;

5The glory of the Lord shall be revealed, And all flesh shall see it together; For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”

6The voice said, “Cry out!” And he said, “What shall I cry?” “All flesh is grass, And all its loveliness is like the flower of the field.

7The grass withers, the flower fades, Because the breath of the Lord blows upon it; Surely the people are grass.
