“The glory of the LORD shall be revealed, And all flesh shall see it together; For the mouth of the LORD has spoken. The voice said, Cry out! And he said, What shall I cry?All flesh is grass, And all its loveliness is like the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower fades, Because the breath of the LORD blows upon it; Surely the people are grass. The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever. O Zion, You who bring good tidings, Get up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, You who bring good tidings, Lift up your voice with strength, Lift it up, be not afraid; Say to the cities of Judah, Behold your God!”
- Isaiah 40:5-9 (NKJV)
