3. A voice of one calling:‘In the wilderness preparethe way for the Lord;make straight in the deserta highway for our God.
4. Every valley shall be raised up,every mountain and hill made low;the rough ground shall become level,the rugged places a plain.
5. And the glory of the Lord will be revealed,and all people will see it together.For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.’
6. A voice says, ‘Cry out.’And I said, ‘What shall I cry?’‘All people are like grass,and all their faithfulness is like the flowers of the field.
7. The grass withers and the flowers fall,because the breath of the Lord blows on them.Surely the people are grass.
