Jeremiah 17:7-9

EasyEnglish Bible

⁷ The Lord blesses people who trust in him.
    They know that the Lord will help them.
⁸ They will be like trees that grow beside a river.
    Their roots reach into the water.
When the sun is hot, they are not afraid.
    Their leaves continue to be green.
They give fruit each year,
    even when there is no rain.
⁹ A person's own mind deceives him,
    more than anything else does.
Nobody can change it to be better.
    Nobody completely understands it.
