1 Peter 1:23-25
English Standard Version
23 (A)since you have been born again, (B)not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through (C)the living and abiding word of God; 24 for

The grass withers,
and the flower falls,
25 (E)but the word of the Lord remains forever.”
And this word (F)is the good news that was preached to you.

1 Peter 1:23-25
Amplified Bible
23 for you have been born again [that is, reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, and set apart for His purpose] not of seed which is perishable but [from that which is] imperishable and immortal, that is, through the living and everlasting word of God. 24 For,
“All flesh is like grass,
And all its glory like the flower of grass.
The grass withers
And the flower falls off,
25
But the word of the Lord endures forever.”
And this is the word [the good news of salvation] which was preached to you.(A)
