'Perishes' in the Bible

Do not work for food that perishes but for food that lasts for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set his seal on him."

so that your genuine faith, which is more valuable than gold that perishes when tested by fire, may result in praise, glory, and honor when Jesus, the Messiah, is revealed.

For you have been born again, not by a seed that perishes but by one that cannot perish by the living and everlasting word of God.
