Old Testament

New Testament

Isaiah 40:5-9 English Standard Version (ESV)

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

6. A voice says, “Cry!”And I said, “What shall I cry?” All flesh is grass,and all its beauty is like the flower of the field.

7. The grass withers, the flower fadeswhen the breath of the Lord blows on it;surely the people are grass.

8. The grass withers, the flower fades,but the word of our God will stand forever.

9. Go on up to a high mountain,O Zion, herald of good news;lift up your voice with strength,O Jerusalem, herald of good news;lift it up, fear not;say to the cities of Judah,“Behold your God!”
