Isaiah 40:7-9

International Children’s Bible

⁷ The grass dies, and the flowers fall.
    This is because the breath of the Lord blows on them.
    Surely the people are like grass.
⁸ The grass dies, and the flowers fall.
    But the word of our God will live forever.”
⁹ Jerusalem, you have good news to tell.
    Go up on a high mountain.
Jerusalem, you have good news to tell.
    Shout out loud the good news.
Shout it out and don’t be afraid.
    Say to the towns of Judah,
    “Here is your God.”
