1 Peter 1:23-25
New King James Version
23 (A)having been born again, not of [a]corruptible seed but [b]incorruptible, (B)through the word of God which lives and abides [c]forever, 24 because
(C)“All flesh is as grass,
And all [d]the glory of man as the flower of the grass.
The grass withers,
And its flower falls away,
25 (D)But the [e]word of the Lord endures forever.”
(E)Now this is the word which by the gospel was preached to you.
