Jeremiah 17:7-9
Modern English Version
7 Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
and whose hope is the Lord.
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters,
and that spreads out its roots by the river,
and shall not fear when heat comes,
but its leaf shall be green,
and it shall not be anxious in the year of drought,
neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9 The heart is more deceitful than all things
and desperately wicked;
who can understand it?
Jeremiah 17:7-9
New International Version
7 “But blessed(A) is the one who trusts(B) in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.
8 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)
9 The heart(F) is deceitful above all things
and beyond cure.
Who can understand it?
