The grass withers, the flower fades,
But (A)the word of our God stands forever.

Get yourself up on a (B)high mountain,
O Zion, bearer of (C)good news,
Lift up your voice mightily,
O Jerusalem, bearer of good news;
Lift it up, do not fear.
Say to the (D)cities of Judah,
(E)Here is your God!”
10 Behold, the Lord [a]God will come (F)with might,
With His (G)arm ruling for Him.
Behold, His (H)reward is with Him
And His recompense before Him.
