Die gras verdor, die blom verwelk; maar die Woord van onse God hou stand in ewigheid.
o Sion, verkondiger van goeie boodskap, klim op 'n hoë berg! o Jerusalem, verkondiger van goeie boodskap, hef jou stem op met mag; hef dit op, wees nie bevrees nie! Sê aan die stede van Juda: Hier is julle God! Kyk, die Here HERE sal kom as 'n Sterke, en Sy arm sal heers; kyk, Sy loon is by Hom, en Sy beloning is voor Sy aangesig.
Hy sal Sy kudde laat wei
soos 'n herder; Hy sal die lammers in Sy arm vergader en aan Sy bors dra; die lammerooie sal Hy saggies lei.
Jesaja 40:9-11 |




 |
The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the Word of our God shall stand forever. Go up for yourself on the high mountain, bringer of good tidings to Zion. Lift up your voice with strength, O you who bring good tidings to Jerusalem; lift up, do not be afraid. Say to the cities of Judah, Behold your God! Behold, the Lord Jehovah will come with a strong hand, and His arm shall rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him. He shall feed His flock like a shepherd; He shall gather the lambs with His arm, and carry them in His bosom, and shall gently lead those with young.
Isaiah 40:8-11 |
