Popular Bible Verses from Yirmeyahu (Jer) 17

Blessed is the man who trusts in ADONAI; ADONAI will be his security. He will be like a tree planted near water; it spreads out its roots by the river; it does not notice when heat comes; and its foliage is luxuriant; it is not anxious in a year of drought but keeps on yielding fruit.

“The heart is more deceitful than anything else and mortally sick. Who can fathom it?

I, ADONAI, search the heart; I test inner motivations; in order to give to everyone what his actions and conduct deserve.”

Here is what ADONAI says: “A curse on the person who trusts in humans, who relies on merely human strength, whose heart turns away from ADONAI. He will be like a tamarisk in the ‘Aravah — when relief comes, it is unaffected; for it lives in the sun-baked desert, in salty, uninhabited land.

Heal me, ADONAI, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved, for you are my praise.
