1 Peter 1:24

⁶The voice of one saying, “Cry out!” One said, “What shall I cry?” “All flesh is like grass, and all its glory is like the flower of the field. ⁷The grass withers, the flower fades, because the LORD’s breath blows on it. Surely the people are like grass. ⁸The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God stands forever.”

¹⁵As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

¹⁴Yet you don’t know what your life will be like tomorrow. For what is your life? For you are a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.

¹⁰and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower in the grass, he will pass away. ¹¹For the sun arises with the scorching wind and withers the grass; and the flower in it falls, and the beauty of its appearance perishes. So the rich man will also fade away in his pursuits.

²For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither like the green herb.

²⁶Therefore their inhabitants had little power. They were dismayed and confounded. They were like the grass of the field and like the green herb, like the grass on the housetops and like grain blasted before it has grown up.

⁷though the wicked spring up as the grass, and all the evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever.

¹⁷The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God’s will remains forever.

⁶Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,

⁴My heart is blighted like grass, and withered, for I forget to eat my bread.
