Isaiah 40:8 The grass wither, the flower fades: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. is not to be dwelt upon morbidly in the manner of Swift, who said, "I was forty-seven years old when I began to think of death, and the reflections upon it now begin when I wake in the morning and end when I am going to sleep." But it is well for us to have the thought at hand. (W. R. Nicoll, LL. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.WEB: The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God stands forever." |
