The grass dries up;
    the flower withers,
    but our God’s word will exist forever.

Go up on a high mountain,
    messenger Zion!
Raise your voice and shout,
    messenger Jerusalem!
Raise it; don’t be afraid;
    say to the cities of Judah,
    “Here is your God!”
10 Here is the Lord God,
    coming with strength,
    with a triumphant arm,
    bringing his reward with him
    and his payment before him.

    go up on a high mountain.
You who bring good news to Jerusalem,[a](F)
    lift up your voice with a shout,
lift it up, do not be afraid;
    say to the towns of Judah,
    “Here is your God!”(G)
10 See, the Sovereign Lord comes(H) with power,(I)
    and he rules(J) with a mighty arm.(K)
See, his reward(L) is with him,
    and his recompense accompanies him.
