Isaiah 40:1-5

¹“Comfort, comfort My people,”

says your God.

²“Speak tenderly to Jerusalem,

and proclaim to her

that her forced labor has been completed;

her iniquity has been pardoned.

For she has received from the hand of the LORD

double for all her sins.”

³A voice of one calling:

“Prepare the way for the LORD in the wilderness;

make a straight highway for our God in the desert.

⁴Every valley shall be lifted up,

and every mountain and hill made low;

the uneven ground will become smooth,

and the rugged land a plain.

⁵And the glory of the LORD will be revealed,

and all humanity together will see it.

— Isaiah 40:1-5
