Jeremiah 17:8-11
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 17
8
For he will be like a tree planted by the water
That extends its roots by a stream,
And does not fear when the heat comes;
But its leaves will be green,
And it will not be anxious in a year of drought,
Nor cease to yield fruit.
9
'The heart is more deceitful than all else
And is desperately sick;
Who can understand it?
10
I, the
Lord
, search the heart,
I test the mind,
To give to each person according to his ways,
According to the results of his deeds.
11
As a partridge that hatches eggs which it has not laid,
So
is a person who makes a fortune, but unjustly;
In the middle of his days it will abandon him,
And in the end he will be a fool.'
King James Version
Chapter 17
8
For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her 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 desperately wicked: who can know it?
10
I the
Lord
search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
11
As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 17
8
He will be like a tree planted by water:
it sends its roots out toward a stream,
it doesn’t fear when heat comes,
and its foliage remains green.
It will not worry in a year of drought
or cease producing fruit.
9
The heart is more deceitful than anything else,
and incurable—who can understand it?
10
I, the
Lord
, examine the mind,
I test the heart
to give to each according to his way,
according to what his actions deserve.
11
He who makes a fortune unjustly
is like a partridge that hatches eggs it didn’t lay.
In the middle of his life
his riches will abandon him,
so in the end he will be a fool.
New Living Translation
Chapter 17
8
They are like trees planted along a riverbank,
with roots that reach deep into the water.
Such trees are not bothered by the heat
or worried by long months of drought.
Their leaves stay green,
and they never stop producing fruit.
9
'The human heart is the most deceitful of all things,
and desperately wicked.
Who really knows how bad it is?
10
But I, the
Lord
, search all hearts
and examine secret motives.
I give all people their due rewards,
according to what their actions deserve.'
11
Like a partridge that hatches eggs she has not laid,
so are those who get their wealth by unjust means.
At midlife they will lose their riches;
in the end, they will become poor old fools.
English Standard Version
Chapter 17
8
He is like a tree planted by water,
that sends out its roots by the stream,
and does not fear when heat comes,
for its leaves remain green,
and is not anxious in the year of drought,
for it does not cease to bear fruit."
9
The heart is deceitful above all things,
and desperately sick;
who can understand it?
10
"I the
Lord
search the heart
and test the mind,
to give every man according to his ways,
according to the fruit of his deeds."
11
Like the partridge that gathers a brood that she did not hatch,
so is he who gets riches but not by justice;
in the midst of his days they will leave him,
and at his end he will be a fool.
New International Version
Chapter 17
8
They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit."
9
The heart is deceitful above all things
and beyond cure.
Who can understand it?
10
"I the
Lord
search the heart
and examine the mind,
to reward each person according to their conduct,
according to what their deeds deserve."
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.
New King James Version
Chapter 17
8
For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters,
Which spreads out its roots by the river,
And will not fear when heat comes;
But its leaf will be green,
And will not be anxious in the year of drought,
Nor will cease from yielding fruit.
9
“The heart
is
deceitful above all
things,
And desperately wicked;
Who can know it?
10
I, the
Lord
, search the heart,
I
test the mind,
Even to give every man according to his ways,
According to the fruit of his doings.
11
“
As
a partridge that broods but does not hatch,
So is
he who gets riches, but not by right;
It will leave him in the midst of his days,
And at his end he will be a fool.”
