Jeremiah 17:11-13
Good News Translation
11 The person who gets money dishonestly
is like a bird that hatches eggs it didn't lay.
In the prime of life he will lose his riches,
and in the end he is nothing but a fool.
12 Our Temple is like a glorious throne,
standing on a high mountain from the beginning.
13 Lord, you are Israel's hope;
all who abandon you will be put to shame.
They will disappear like names written in the dust,[a]
because they have abandoned you, the Lord,
the spring of fresh water.
Footnotes
- Jeremiah 17:13 disappear … dust; or go to the world of the dead.
