a“The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
‘Prepare the way of the Lord;
Make His paths straight.

And every mountain and hill brought low;
The crooked places shall be made straight
And the rough ways smooth;
And every mountain and hill brought low;
The crooked places shall be made straight
And the rough ways smooth;
6 And aall flesh shall see the salvation of God.’ ”

8 Therefore bear fruits aworthy of repentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.
