Jeremiah 17:3-5

Expanded Bible

³ My mountain in the open country
    and your wealth and treasures
I will give ·away to other people [^Las plunder].
    I will give away the places of worship in your country,
    because you sinned by worshiping there.
⁴ You will ·lose [drop] the ·land [^Linheritance] I gave you,
    and it is your own fault.
I will ·let your enemies take you as their slaves [^Lmake you serve your enemies]
    to a land you have never known.
This is because you ·have made my anger burn like a hot fire [^Lkindled a fire in my anger],
    and it will burn forever [15:11–14].”

⁵ This is what the Lord says:
“·A curse is placed on [^LCursed are] those who ·trust [have confidence in] other people,
    who ·depend on humans for [^Lmake flesh their] strength,
    who have ·stopped trusting [^Lturned their heart from] the Lord.
