1 Pedro 1

The Enduring Word

22 Since you have purified your souls by obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere love for the brothers, love one another fervently from a pure heart, 23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever. 24 For

"All flesh is as grass,

and all the glory of man is as the flower of the grass.

The grass withers,

and its flower falls away,

25 but the word of the Lord endures forever."

Now this is the word which was proclaimed to you.
