and every mountain and hill be made low;
the uneven ground shall become level,
and the rough places a plain.
5 (E)And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed,

Common English Bible
3 A voice is crying out:
“Clear the Lord’s way in the desert!
Make a level highway in the wilderness for our God!
4 Every valley will be raised up,
and every mountain and hill will be flattened.
Uneven ground will become level,
and rough terrain a valley plain.
5 The Lord’s glory will appear,
and all humanity will see it together;
the Lord’s mouth has commanded it.”
