Isaiah 40:3–5

3 aA voice 1is calling,

“bClear the way for the Lord in the wilderness;

Make smooth in the desert a highway for our God.

4 “Let every valley be lifted up,

And every mountain and hill be made low;

And let the rough ground become a plain,

And the rugged terrain a broad valley;

5 1Then the aglory of the Lord will be revealed,

And ball flesh will see it together;

For the cmouth of the Lord has spoken.”
