Jeremiah 17:8-10
Common English Bible
8 They will be like trees planted by the streams,
whose roots reach down to the water.
They won’t fear drought when it comes;
their leaves will remain green.
They won’t be stressed in the time of drought
or fail to bear fruit.
9 The most cunning heart—
it’s beyond help.
Who can figure it out?
10 I, the Lord, probe the heart
and discern hidden motives,
to give everyone what they deserve,
the consequences of their deeds.
Jeremiah 17:8-10
New International Version
8 They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.(A)
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought(B)
and never fails to bear fruit.”(C)
9 The heart(D) is deceitful above all things
and beyond cure.
Who can understand it?
