make his paths straight.

uand every mountain and hill shall be made low,
vand the crooked shall become straight,
and the rough places shall become level ways,
6 wand all flesh shall see xthe salvation of God.’”

And do not begin to say to yourselves, ac‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you, God is able from adthese stones to raise up children for Abraham. 9Even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. aeEvery tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.”
