1 Peter 1:23-25

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

²³ having been born-again not from perishable seed but imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God. ²⁴ Because “All flesh is like grass and all its glory like a flower of grass. The grass was dried-up and the flower fell-off. ²⁵ But the word of the Lord abides forever” [Isa 40:6-8]— and this is the word having been announced-as-good-news to you.
