The grass [a]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,
Raise up your voice powerfully,
O Jerusalem, bearer of good news;
Raise it up, do not fear.
Say to the (D)cities of Judah,
(E)Behold your God!”
10 Behold, Lord Yahweh will come (F)with strength,
With His (G)arm ruling for Him.
Behold, His (H)reward is with Him
And His recompense before Him.
