Jeremiah 17:5-7

New King James Version

^(A)“Cursed is the man who trusts in man
And makes ^(B)flesh his ^[a]strength,
Whose heart departs from the Lord.
⁶ For he shall be ^(C)like a shrub in the desert,
And ^(D)shall not see when good comes,
But shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness,
^(E)In a salt land which is not inhabited.

⁷ “Blessed^(F) is the man who trusts in the Lord,
And whose hope is the Lord.
