Isaiah 40:8

New Living Translation

⁸The grass withers and the flowers fade,
but the word of our God stands forever.”

⁸The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.

Isaiah 40:8 The apostle Peter quotes this verse (I Pet. 1:24-25) and then adds, “and this Word is the good news which was preached to you”—which confirms as fact that Isaiah is here referring to the times of Christ, the Messiah, the Anointed One.
