as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet:

(A)The voice of one calling [a]out in the wilderness,
Prepare the way of the Lord,
Make His paths straight!
(B)Every ravine will be filled,
And every mountain and hill will be lowered;
The crooked will become straight,
And the rough roads smooth;
(C)And all [b]flesh will (D)see the salvation of God!’”

(A)The voice of one calling out,
(B)Clear the way for the Lord in the wilderness;
Make [a]straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Let every valley be lifted up,
And every mountain and hill be made low;
And let the uneven ground become a plain,
And the rugged terrain a broad valley;
[b]Then the (C)glory of the Lord will be revealed,
And (D)all flesh will see it together;
For the (E)mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
