English Standard Version Help
40Comfort, comfort my people, says your God.H5162H5162H5971H559H430 2Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received from the LORD's hand double for all her sins.H1696H3820H3389H7121H6635H4390H5771H7521H3947H3068H3027H3718H2403 3A voice cries: "In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD; make straight in the desert a highway for our God.H6963H7121H4057H6437H1870H3068H3474H6160H4546H430 4Every 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.H1516H5375H2022H1389H8213H6121H4334H7406H1237 5And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken."H3519H3068H1540H1320H7200H3162H6310H3068H1696 6A voice says, "Cry!" And I said, "What shall I cry?" All flesh is grass, and all its beauty is like the flower of the field.H6963H559H7121H559H7121H1320H2682H2617H6731H7704 7The grass withers, the flower fades when the breath of the LORD blows on it; surely the people are grass.H2682H3001H6731H5034H7307H3068H5380H403H5971H2682 8The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever.H2682H3001H6731H5034H1697H430H6965H5769 9Get you up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good news; lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good news; lift it up, fear not; say to the cities of Judah, "Behold your God!"H6726H1319H5927H1364H2022H3389H1319H7311H6963H3581H7311H3372H559H5892H3063H430 10Behold, the Lord GOD comes with might, and his arm rules for him; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.H136H3069H935H2389H2220H4910H7939H6468H6440 11He will tend his flock like a shepherd; he will gather the lambs in his arms; he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young.H7462H5739H7462H6908H2922H2220H5375H2436H5095H5763 12Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand and marked off the heavens with a span, enclosed the dust of the earth in a measure and weighed the mountains in scales and the hills in a balance?H4058H4325H8168H8505H8064H2239H3557H6083H776H7991H8254H2022H6425H1389H3976 13Who has measured the Spirit of the LORD, or what man shows him his counsel?H8505H7307H3068H376H6098H3045 14Whom did he consult, and who made him understand? Who taught him the path of justice, and taught him knowledge, and showed him the way of understanding?H3289H995H3925H734H4941H3925H1847H3045H1870H8394 15Behold, the nations are like a drop from a bucket, and are accounted as the dust on the scales; behold, he takes up the coastlands like fine dust.H1471H4752H1805H2803H7834H3976H5190H339H1851 16Lebanon would not suffice for fuel, nor are its beasts enough for a burnt offering.H3844H369H1767H1197H2416H1767H5930 17All the nations are as nothing before him, they are accounted by him as less than nothing and emptiness.H1471H2803H657H8414 18To whom then will you liken God, or what likeness compare with him?H1819H410H1823H6186 19An idol! A craftsman casts it, and a goldsmith overlays it with gold and casts for it silver chains.H2796H5258H6459H6884H7554H2091H6884H3701H7577 20He who is too impoverished for an offering chooses wood that will not rot; he seeks out a skillful craftsman to set up an idol that will not move.H5533H5534H8641H977H6086H7537H1245H2450H2796H3559H6459H4131 21Do you not know? Do you not hear? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth?H3045H8085H5046H7218H995H4146H776 22It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them like a tent to dwell in;H3427H2329H776H3427H2284H5186H8064H1852H4969H168H3427 23who brings princes to nothing, and makes the rulers of the earth as emptiness.H5414H7336H6213H8199H776H8414 24Scarcely are they planted, scarcely sown, scarcely has their stem taken root in the earth, when he blows on them, and they wither, and the tempest carries them off like stubble.H5193H2232H1503H8327H776H5398H3001H5591H5375H7179 25To whom then will you compare me, that I should be like him? says the Holy One.H1819H7737H559H6918 26Lift up your eyes on high and see: who created these? He who brings out their host by number, calling them all by name, by the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power not one is missing.H5375H5869H4791H7200H1254H3318H6635H4557H7121H8034H7230H202H533H3581H376H5737 27Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, "My way is hidden from the LORD, and my right is disregarded by my God"?H559H3290H1696H3478H1870H5641H3068H4941H5674H430 28Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable.H3045H8085H5769H430H3068H1254H7098H776H3286H3021H2714H8394 29He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength.H5414H3581H3287H202H7235H6109 30Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted;H5288H3286H3021H970H3782H3782 31but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.H6960H3068H2498H3581H5927H83H5404H7323H3021H3212H3286
