Isaiah 40:4-6
International Standard Version
4 Every valley will be lifted up,
and every mountain and hill will be lowered;
the rough ground will become level,
and the mountain ridges made a plain.
5 Then the glory of the Lord will be revealed,
and all humanity will see it at once;
for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
The Word of God Endures Forever
6 A voice says, “Cry out!”
So I[a] asked, “What am I to cry out?”
“All humanity is grass,
and all its loyalty[b] is like the flowers of the field.
