Happy are those who trust in the Lord,
    who rely on the Lord.
They will be like trees planted by the streams,
    whose roots reach down to the water.
They won’t fear drought when it comes;
    their leaves will remain green.
They won’t be stressed in the time of drought
    or fail to bear fruit.

The most cunning heart—
    it’s beyond help.
        Who can figure it out?

“But blessed(A) is the one who trusts(B) in the Lord,
    whose confidence is in him.
They will be like a tree planted by the water
    that sends out its roots by the stream.(C)
It does not fear when heat comes;
    its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought(D)
    and never fails to bear fruit.”(E)

The heart(F) is deceitful above all things
    and beyond cure.
    Who can understand it?
