'Ready' in the Bible

It is he who will go as a forerunner before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers back to the children, and the disobedient to the attitude of the righteous, so as to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”

as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet,“The voice of one crying in the wilderness,‘Make ready the way of the Lord,Make His paths straight.

You too, be ready; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour that you do not expect.”

And that slave who knew his master’s will and did not get ready or act in accord with his will, will receive many lashes,

and at the dinner hour he sent his slave to say to those who had been invited, ‘Come; for everything is ready now.’

But he said to Him, “Lord, with You I am ready to go both to prison and to death!”
