Isaiah 40:9-11
English Standard Version
The Greatness of God
9 Go on up to a high mountain,
O Zion, (A)herald of good news;[a]
lift up your voice with strength,
O Jerusalem, herald of good news;[b]
lift it up, fear not;
say to the cities of Judah,
“Behold your God!”
10 (B)Behold, the Lord God comes with might,
and his arm rules for him;
(C)behold, his reward is with him,
and his recompense before him.
11 (D)He will tend his flock like a shepherd;
(E)he will gather the lambs in his arms;
(F)he will carry them in his bosom,
and gently lead those that are with young.
