Isaiah 40:6-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶ The voice of one, saying: Cry. And I said: What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the glory thereof as the flower of the held.

⁷ The grass is withered, and the dower is fallen, because the spirit of the Lord hath blown upon it. Indeed the people is grass:

⁸ The grass is withered, and the flower is fallen: but the word of our Lord endureth for ever.
