Isaiah 40:6
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
A voice says, “Cry out!” And I asked, “What should I cry out?” “All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flowers of the field.
In context
4 Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill made low; the uneven ground will become smooth, and the rugged land a plain.
5 And the glory of the LORD will be revealed, and all humanity together will see it. For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.”
6 A voice says, “Cry out!” And I asked, “What should I cry out?” “All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flowers of the field.
7 The grass withers and the flowers fall when the breath of the LORD blows on them; indeed, the people are grass.
8 The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever.”
