A voice cries out:
“In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord;
    make straight in the desert a highway for our God.(A)
Every valley shall be lifted up,
    and every mountain and hill be made low;
the uneven ground shall become level,
    and the rough places a plain.(B)
Then the glory of the Lord shall be revealed,
    and all flesh shall see it together,
    for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”

Prepare the way of the Lord in the wilderness;(A)

and the rough places, a plain.(C)
And the glory of the Lord will appear,(D)
and all humanity[a] together will see it,(E)
for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.(F)
