‏ Isaiah 40:6-7

The Word of God Stands Forever

6 A voice says, “Cry!”
And I said, ^{▼▼Revocalization based on Dead Sea Scroll, Septuagint, Vulgate; Masoretic Text And someone says} “What shall I cry?”
^bAll flesh is grass,
and all its beauty ^{▼▼Or all its constancy} is like the flower of the field.
7 The grass withers, the flower fades
when the breath of the Lord blows on it;
surely the people are grass.
