Every valleyH1516 shall be exaltedH5375, and every mountainH2022 and hillH1389 shall be made lowH8213: and the crookedH6121 shall be made straightH4334, and the rough placesH7406 plainH1237: {straight: or, a straight place} {plain: or, a plain place}
And the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 shall be revealedH1540, and all fleshH1320 shall seeH7200 it togetherH3162: for the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 it.

AndG2532 sayingG3004, Repent yeG3340: forG1063 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is at handG1448.
ForG1063 thisG3778 is heG2076 that was spokenG4483 of byG5259 the prophetG4396 EsaiasG2268, sayingG3004, The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
The beginningG746 of the gospelG2098 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the SonG5207 of GodG2316;
AsG5613 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the prophetsG4396, BeholdG2400, IG1473 sendG649 myG3450 messengerG32 beforeG4253 thyG4675 faceG4383, whichG3739 shall prepareG2680 thyG4675 wayG3598 beforeG1715 theeG4675.
The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.

AndG2532 thouG4771, childG3813, shalt be calledG2564 the prophetG4396 of the HighestG5310: forG1063 thou shalt goG4313 beforeG4253 the faceG4383 of the LordG2962 to prepareG2090 hisG846 waysG3598;
To giveG1325 knowledgeG1108 of salvationG4991 unto hisG846 peopleG2992 byG1722 the remissionG859 of theirG846 sinsG266, {by: or, for}
ThroughG1223 the tenderG4698 mercyG1656 of ourG2257 GodG2316; wherebyG1722+G3739 the dayspringG395 fromG1537 on highG5311 hath visitedG1980 usG2248, {tender…: or, bowels of the mercy} {dayspring: or, Sunrising, or, branch, Zac.3.8, esay II, I Malich.4.2, numb.24.17}
He saidG5346, IG1473 am the voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Make straightG2116 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, asG2531 saidG2036 the prophetG4396 EsaiasG2268.

SoG3779 ChristG5547 was onceG530 offeredG4374 toG1519 bearG399 the sinsG266 of manyG4183; and unto them that lookG553 for himG846 shall he appearG3700+G1537 the second timeG1208 withoutG5565 sinG266 untoG1519 salvationG4991.
Humble yourselvesG5013 in the sightG1799 of the LordG2962, andG2532 he shall liftG5312 youG5209 upG5312.
Humble yourselvesG5013 thereforeG3767 underG5259 the mightyG2900 handG5495 of GodG2316, thatG2443 he may exaltG5312 youG5209 inG1722 due timeG2540:
I tellG3004 youG5213, this manG3778 went downG2597 toG1519 hisG846 houseG3624 justifiedG1344 rather thanG2228 the otherG1565: forG3754 every oneG3956 that exaltethG5312 himselfG1438 shall be abasedG5013; andG1161 he that humblethG5013 himselfG1438 shall be exaltedG5312.

AsG5613 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG976 of the wordsG3056 of EsaiasG2268 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004, The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
EveryG3956 valleyG5327 shall beG2071 filledG4137, andG2532 everyG3956 mountainG3735 andG2532 hillG1015 shall be brought lowG5013; andG2532 the crookedG4646 shall be madeG1519 straightG2117, andG2532 the roughG5138 waysG3598 shall be madeG1519 smoothG3006;
AndG2532 allG3956 fleshG4561 shall seeG3700 the salvationG4992 of GodG2316.

Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 worthyG514 of repentanceG3341, andG2532 beginG756 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 to our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 unto AbrahamG11. {worthy of: or, meet for}
AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 untoG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: everyG3956 treeG1186 thereforeG3767 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
EveryG3956 valleyG5327 shall beG2071 filledG4137, andG2532 everyG3956 mountainG3735 andG2532 hillG1015 shall be brought lowG5013; andG2532 the crookedG4646 shall be madeG1519 straightG2117, andG2532 the roughG5138 waysG3598 shall be madeG1519 smoothG3006;
ThenG1161 cameG2064 alsoG2532 publicansG5057 to be baptizedG907, andG2532 saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846, MasterG1320, whatG5101 shall we doG4160?
AndG1161 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, ExactG4238 noG3367 moreG4119 thanG3844 that which is appointedG1299 youG5213.
EveryG3956 valleyG5327 shall beG2071 filledG4137, andG2532 everyG3956 mountainG3735 andG2532 hillG1015 shall be brought lowG5013; andG2532 the crookedG4646 shall be madeG1519 straightG2117, andG2532 the roughG5138 waysG3598 shall be madeG1519 smoothG3006;
AndG1161 the soldiersG4754 likewiseG2532 demandedG1905 of himG846, sayingG3004, AndG2532 whatG5101 shall weG2249 doG4160? AndG2532 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, Do violenceG1286 to no manG3367, neitherG3366 accuse any falselyG4811; andG2532 be contentG714 with yourG5216 wagesG3800. {Do violence…: or, Put no man in fear} {wages: or, allowance}
BeholdG2400, he comethG2064 withG3326 cloudsG3507; andG2532 everyG3956 eyeG3788 shall seeG3700 himG846, andG2532 they also whichG3748 piercedG1574 himG846: andG2532 allG3956 kindredsG5443 of the earthG1093 shall wailG2875 becauseG1909 of himG846. Even soG3483, AmenG281.
