Jeremiah 17:9-11
Jubilee Bible 2000
9 The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked; who shall know it?
10 I the LORD search the heart; I try the kidneys, even to give each man according to his ways and according to the fruit of his doings.
11 As the partridge that steals that which she did not hatch, is he that gets riches and not with righteousness; in the midst of his days he shall leave them, and at his end shall be a fool.

Jeremiah 17:9-11
New International Version
9 The heart(A) is deceitful above all things
and beyond cure.
Who can understand it?
10 “I the Lord search the heart(B)
and examine the mind,(C)
to reward(D) each person according to their conduct,
according to what their deeds deserve.”(E)
11 Like a partridge that hatches eggs it did not lay
are those who gain riches by unjust means.
When their lives are half gone, their riches will desert them,
and in the end they will prove to be fools.(F)
