Isaiah 40:3

He said, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as the prophet Isaiah said."

As it is written in Isaiah the prophet: "Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way";

In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea,

And he will turn many of the sons of Israel to the Lord their God.

And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare his ways,

during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness.
