Jeremiah 17:8-10
Lexham English Bible
8 For he will be like a tree planted by water,
and to the stream it sends its roots,
and it will not fear when heat comes,
and its leaves[a] will be luxuriant,
and in the year of drought it will not be anxious,
and it will not cease from the bearing of fruit.
9 The heart is deceitful more than anything else,
and it is disastrous. Who can understand it?
10 I, Yahweh, examine the mind,[b]
I test the heart,[c]
and give to each one according to his way,
according to the fruit of his deeds.
