The grass fades; the word endures

6A voice says, “Cry out!” And I said, “What shall I cry?” All flesh is grass, and all its loveliness is like the flower of the field.

7The grass dries up, the flower withers, because the breath of Yahweh blows on it; surely the people are grass.

8The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever.
