Isaiah 40:4-8 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

4. Every valley shall be lifted up,every mountain and hill made low;The rugged land shall be a plain,the rough country, a broad valley.

5. Then 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, “Proclaim!”I answer, “What shall I proclaim?”“All flesh is grass,and all their loyalty like the flower of the field.

7. The grass withers, the flower wilts,when the breath of the Lord blows upon it.”“Yes, the people is grass!

8. The grass withers, the flower wilts,but the word of our God stands forever.”
