New Testament

Jeremiah 17:5-7 Common English Bible (CEB)

5. The Lord proclaims:Cursed are those who trust in mere humans,who depend on human strengthand turn their hearts from the Lord.

6. They will be like a desert shrubthat doesn’t know when relief comes.They will live in the parched places of the wilderness,in a barren land where no one survives.

7. Happy are those who trust in the Lord, who rely on the Lord.
