Contemporary English Version
1 Peter 1:23-25
Contemporary English Version
23 Do this because God has given you new birth by his message that lives on forever. 24 (A) The Scriptures say,
“Humans wither like grass,
and their glory fades
like wild flowers.
Grass dries up,
and flowers fall
to the ground.
25 But what the Lord has said
will stand forever.”
Our good news to you is what the Lord has said.
