The voice of one who calls out,
    “Prepare the way of Yahweh in the wilderness!
    Make a level highway in the desert for our God.
Every valley shall be exalted,
    and every mountain and hill shall be made low.
    The uneven shall be made level,
    and the rough places a plain.
Yahweh’s glory shall be revealed,
    and all flesh shall see it together;
    for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken it.”

(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.”
