The King James Version Bible

Isaiah 40:4-9

  1. Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:

  2. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

  3. The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field:

  4. The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.

  5. The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.

  6. O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold your God!
