Jeremiah 17

Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

7 Ref Blessed `is' the man who trusteth in Jehovah, And whose confidence hath been Jehovah.

8 Ref And hath been as a tree planted by waters, And by a rivulet he sendeth forth his roots, And he doth not see when heat cometh, And his leaf hath been green, And in a year of dearth he is not sorrowful, Nor doth he cease from making fruit.

9 Ref Crooked `is' the heart above all things, And it `is' incurable -- who doth know it?

World English Bible (WEB)

7 Ref Blessed is the man who trusts in Yahweh, and whose trust Yahweh is.

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

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