1 Peter 1:23-25
Tree of Life Version
23 You have been born again—not from perishable seed but imperishable—through the living and enduring word of God. 24 For,
“All humanity is like grass,
And all its glory like a wildflower.
The grass withers, and the flower falls off,
25 But the word of the Lord endures forever.”[a]
And this is the word that was proclaimed as Good News to you.
