3 A voice, of one cryingiin the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight the paths of our God.

4 Every valley shall be filled up, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked places shall become a straight (path), and the rough land smooth ways.

5 And the glory of the Lord shall be seen, and all flesh shall see the salvation of God, for the Lord hath spoken.

6 A voice of one saying, Cry! And I said, What shall I cry? ’All flesh (is) grass, and all glory of man (is) as the flower of grass.

8 The grass is withered, and the flower is fallen; but the word of our God abideth for ever.
