8. The grass withers, the flower fades,but the word of our God shall stand forever.
9. O Zion, bearer of good news,get yourself up onto a high mountain;O Jerusalem, bearer of good news,lift up your voice with strength,lift it up, do not be afraid;say to the cities of Judah,“Here is your God!”
10. See, the Lord God will come with a strong hand,and His arm shall rule for Him;see, His reward is with Him,and His recompense before Him.
11. He shall feed His flock like a shepherd;He shall gather the lambs with His arm,and carry them in His bosom,and shall gently lead those that are with young.
12. Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand,and meted out heaven with the span,and calculated the dust of the earth by the measure,and weighed the mountains in scales,and the hills in a balance?
13. Who has directed the Spirit of the Lord,or as His counselor has taught Him?
