1 Comfort, comfort my people,| says your God. 2 Speak kindly to Jerusalem, and tell her that her time of warfare is over, that her punishment is completed. For the LORD has made her pay double for all her sins.| 3 A voice cries out, |In the wilderness clear a way for the LORD; construct in the desert a road for our God. 4 Every valley must be elevated, and every mountain and hill leveled. The rough terrain will become a level plain, the rugged landscape a wide valley. Isaiah 40:1-4, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
