Isaiah 40:3

He said, "I am a voice of one shouting in the desert, 'Make the road straight for the Lord,' as the prophet Isaiah said."

As it is written in the prophet Isaiah: "Here I send my messenger ahead of you; He will prepare your way.

In those days John the Baptist appeared, and kept preaching in the desert of Judea,

And he will turn many of Israel's descendants to the Lord their God.

And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High, for you will go before the Lord to make ready His ways,

in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the message of God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the desert.
