And it will be said:“ Build up, build up, prepare the road! Remove the obstacles out of the way of my people.”

And it shall be said,“ Build up, build up, prepare the way, remove every obstruction from my people’s way.”

God says,“ Rebuild the road! Clear away the rocks and stones so my people can return from captivity.”

He said,“ Build it up, build it up, prepare the way, remove every obstacle from my people’s way.”

And it will be said,“ Build up, build up, prepare the way, Remove every obstacle from the way of My people.”

And one shall say,“ Heap it up! Heap it up! Prepare the way, Take the stumbling block out of the way of My people.”

And he will say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumbling- block out of the way of my people.

A messenger is calling out,“ In the desert prepare the way for the Lord. Make a straight road through it for our God.

A wide road will go through the land. It will be called the Way of Holiness. Only those who lead a holy life can use it.“ Unclean” and foolish people can’t walk on it.

Every valley will be filled in. Every mountain and hill will be made level. The crooked roads will become straight. The rough ways will become smooth.And all people will see God’s salvation.’ ”( Isaiah 40:3–5)

But my people have forgotten me. They burn incense to worthless gods. Their gods made them trip and fall as they walked on the old paths. They made them use side roads instead of roads that were built up.

Let us stop judging one another. Instead, decide not to put anything in the way of a brother or sister. Don’t put anything in their way that would make them trip and fall.

So suppose what I eat causes my brother or sister to fall into sin. Then what should I do? I will never eat meat again. In that way, I will not cause them to fall.

Don’t do anything that causes another person to trip and fall. It doesn’t matter if that person is a Jew or a Greek or a member of God’s church.Follow my example. I try to please everyone in every way. I’m not looking out for what is good for me. I’m looking out for the interests of others. I do it so that they might be saved.

We don’t put anything in anyone’s way. So no one can find fault with our work for God.

But we preach about Christ and his death on the cross. That is very hard for Jews to accept. And everyone else thinks it’s foolish.

But be careful how you use your rights. Be sure you don’t cause someone weaker than you to fall into sin.

“ Make level paths for your feet to walk on.”( Proverbs 4:26) Then those who have trouble walking won’t be disabled. Instead, they will be healed.
