Isaiah 40:4 in Context — Isaiah 40

2 Parlez au cœur de Jérusalem, et criez-lui Que sa servitude est finie, Que son iniquité est expiée, Qu’elle a reçu de la main de l’Éternel Au double de tous ses péchés.

3 Une voix crie: Préparez au désert le chemin de l’Éternel, Aplanissez dans les lieux arides Une route pour notre Dieu.

4 Que toute vallée soit exhaussée, Que toute montagne et toute colline soient abaissées! Que les coteaux se changent en plaines, Et les défilés étroits en vallons!

5 Alors la gloire de l’Éternel sera révélée, Et au même instant toute chair la verra; Car la bouche de l’Éternel a parlé.

6 Une voix dit: Crie! Et il répond: Que crierai-je? Toute chair est comme l’herbe, Et tout son éclat comme la fleur des champs.
