before him and loose the armor of kings, to open before him the double doors so that the gates shall
not be shut: I will go before you and level the mountains, I will break in pieces the gates of
bronze and cut through the bars of iron, I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden
riches of secret places, so that you may know that it is I, the LORD, the God of Israel, who call you by
your name.
