Isaiah 40:5
Compare all
3 aThe voice of one crying in the wilderness:
b“Prepare the way of the Lord;
cMake straight1 in the desert
A highway for our God. 
4 Every valley shall be exalted
And every mountain and hill brought low;
aThe crooked places shall be made1 straight
And the rough places smooth; 
5 The aglory of the Lord shall be revealed,
And all flesh shall see it together;
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” 
6 The voice said, “Cry out!”
And1 he said, “What shall I cry?”
a“All flesh is grass,
And all its loveliness is like the flower of the field. 
7 The grass withers, the flower fades,
Because the breath of the Lord blows upon it;
Surely the people are grass.
8 The grass withers, the flower fades,
But athe word of our God stands forever.” 
9 O Zion,
You who bring good tidings,
Get up into the high mountain;
O Jerusalem,
You who bring good tidings,
Lift up your voice with strength,
Lift it up, be not afraid;
Say to the cities of Judah, “Behold your God!”
10 Behold, the Lord God shall come1 with a strong hand,
And aHis arm shall rule for Him;
Behold, bHis reward is with Him,
And His1 work before Him.

Isaiah 40:5

see it—The Septuagint for "it," has "the salvation of God." So Luke 3:6 (compare Luke 2:30, that is, Messiah); but the Evangelist probably took these words from Isaiah 52:10.

for—rather, "All flesh shall see that the mouth of Jehovah hath spoken it" [BENGEL].
