Jeremiah 17:7-9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 Blessed are those who trust in the Lord;
the Lord will be their trust.(A)
8 They are like a tree planted beside the waters
that stretches out its roots to the stream:
It does not fear heat when it comes,
its leaves stay green;
In the year of drought it shows no distress,
but still produces fruit.(B)
9 More tortuous than anything is the human heart,
beyond remedy; who can understand it?

New International Version
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?
