Jeremiah 17:10-12
International Standard Version
Jeremiah 17:10-12
International Standard Version
10 I am the Lord who searches the heart,
who tests the inner depths
to give to each person
according to what he deserves,[a]
according to the fruit of his deeds.
11 As a partridge gathers together eggs
that it didn’t lay,
so is a person who amasses wealth unjustly.
In the middle of his life[b] it will leave him,
and in the end he will prove to be a fool.”
The Lord: The Hope of Israel
12 A glorious throne exalted 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.
