Isaiah 40:6
Douay-Rheims
The voice of one, saying: Cry. And I said: What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the glory thereof as the flower of the held.
Augustine of Hippo
Both what is being thought of by intelligence and what is sounding out loud in speech is changeable and dissimilar. The first will not remain when you have forgotten it, nor will the second when you stop speaking. But "the Word of the Lord remains forever" and abides unchanged and unchangeable.
