你们要向耶路撒冷说慈爱的话,

又要向它宣告:他们的苦难已经满足了,

他们的罪孽已经还清了,

他们因着自己的一切罪,

已经从耶和华的手里受到过重的刑罚。”

预言在旷野有预备主道的

有声音呼喊说:

“你们要在旷野清理耶和华的路,

在沙漠修直我们 神的大道。

一切深谷都要填满,

一切山冈都要削平;

险峻的要改为平地,

崎岖的要改为平原。

Speak tenderly(A) to Jerusalem,
    and proclaim to her
that her hard service(B) has been completed,(C)
    that her sin has been paid for,(D)
that she has received from the Lord’s hand
    double(E) for all her sins.

A voice of one calling:
“In the wilderness prepare
    the way(F) for the Lord[a];
make straight(G) in the desert
    a highway for our God.[b](H)
Every valley shall be raised up,(I)
    every mountain and hill(J) made low;
the rough ground shall become level,(K)
    the rugged places a plain.
