 | The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever. |
 | The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. |
 | The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever. |
| Isaiah 40:8 |
Commentary
The permanence of God's word guarantees against any deviation from the divine plan (55:11). He has promised Jerusalem's deliverance (v. 2) through His coming (vv. 3-5), so it must happen that way (cf. Matt. 5:18; Luke 16:17).
