1 Peter 1:23-25
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
23 You have been born anew,(A) not from perishable but from imperishable seed, through the living and abiding word of God,[a] 24 for:
“All flesh is like grass,
and all its glory like the flower of the field;
the grass withers,
and the flower wilts;(B)
25 but the word of the Lord remains forever.”
This is the word that has been proclaimed to you.
