Old Testament

New Testament

Jeremiah 17:6-9 American Standard Version (ASV)

6. For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh, but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, a salt land and not inhabited.

7. Blessed is the man that trusteth in Jehovah, and whose trust Jehovah is.

8. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, that spreadeth out its roots by the river, and shall not fear when heat cometh, but its leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.

9. The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly corrupt: who can know it?
