Thus says the Lord: Cursed are those who trust in mere mortals and
make mere flesh their strength, whose hearts turn away from the Lord.
They shall be like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see when relief
comes. They shall live in the parched places of the desert, in an
uninhabited salt land.
Blessed are those who trust in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord.
They shall be like a tree planted by water, sending out its roots
by the stream. It shall not fear when heat comes, and its leaves
shall stay green; in the year of drought it is not anxious, and it
does not cease to bear fruit.
The heart is devious above all else; it is perverse - who can understand it? I the Lord
test the mind and search the heart, to give all according to their ways, according to
the fruit of their doings. Jeremiah 17:5-10
