A voice of one crying out:

Prepare the way of the LORD in the wilderness;

make a straight highway for our God in the desert.

I will make all my mountains into a road,

and my highways will be raised up.

Their feet run after evil,

and they rush to shed innocent blood.

Their thoughts are sinful thoughts;

ruin and wretchedness are in their paths.

Go out, go out through the city gates;

prepare a way for the people!

Build it up, build up the highway;

clear away the stones!

Raise a banner for the peoples.

Set up road markers for yourself;

establish signposts!

Keep the highway in mind,

the way you have traveled.

Return, Virgin Israel!

Return to these cities of yours.

They do not push each other;

each proceeds on his own path.

They dodge the arrows, never stopping.
