Jeremiah 17:8-10

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁸ He will be like a tree planted by water.
It sends out its roots to the stream.
It does not fear the heat when it comes.
Its leaves will remain green.
It is not concerned about a time of drought.
It does not stop producing fruit.

⁹ The heart is more deceitful than anything.
It is beyond cure.
Who can understand it?
¹⁰ I, the Lord, am the one who searches the heart
and examines the mind,
    to reward a man according to what he has done,
    according to what his deeds deserve.
