American Standard Version
Jeremiah 17:10-12
American Standard Version
10 I, Jehovah, search the mind, I try the [a]heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings. 11 As the partridge [b]that sitteth on eggs which she hath not laid, so is he that getteth riches, and not by right; in the midst of his days [c]they shall leave him, and at his end he shall be a fool.
12 A glorious throne, set on high from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.

New International Version
Jeremiah 17:10-12
New International Version
10 “I the Lord search the heart(A)
and examine the mind,(B)
to reward(C) each person according to their conduct,
according to what their deeds deserve.”(D)
11 Like a partridge that hatches eggs it did not lay
are those who gain riches by unjust means.
When their lives are half gone, their riches will desert them,
and in the end they will prove to be fools.(E)
12 A glorious throne,(F) exalted from the beginning,
is the place of our sanctuary.
