New Testament

Jeremiah 17:11-15 American Standard Version (ASV)

11. As the partridge that sitteth on eggs which she hath not laid, so is he that getteth riches, and not by right; in the midst of his days they shall leave him, and at his end he shall be a fool.

12. A glorious throne, set on high from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.

13. O Jehovah, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be put to shame. They that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken Jehovah, the fountain of living waters.

14. Heal me, O Jehovah, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.

15. Behold, they say unto me, Where is the word of Jehovah? let it come now.
