^5 (A)And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed,
    and all flesh shall see it together,
    ^(B)for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”

⁶ A voice says, “Cry!”
    And I said,^[a] “What shall I cry?”
^(A)All flesh is grass,
    and all its beauty^[b] is like the flower of the field.

⁷ The grass withers, the flower fades
    when the breath of the Lord blows on it;
    surely the people are grass.

^8 (A)The grass withers, the flower fades,
    but the word of our God will stand forever.
