Jeremiah 17:9-13

17:9

The heart
<03820>

[is] deceitful
<06121>

above all [things], and desperately wicked
<0605> (8803)_:

who can know
<03045> (8799)

it?

17:10

I the LORD
<03068>

search
<02713> (8802)

the heart
<03820>_,

[I] try
<0974> (8802)

the reins
<03629>_,

even to give
<05414> (8800)

every man
<0376>

according to his ways
<01870>_,

[and] according to the fruit
<06529>

of his doings
<04611>_.

17:11

[As] the partridge
<07124>

sitteth
<01716> (8804)

[on eggs], and hatcheth
<03205> (8804)

[them] not; [so] he that getteth
<06213> (8802)

riches
<06239>_,

and not by right
<04941>_,

shall leave
<05800> (8799)

them in the midst
<02677>

of his days
<03117>_,

and at his end
<0319>

shall be a fool
<05036>_.

{sitteth...: or, gathereth young which she hath not brought forth}

17:12

A glorious
<03519>

high
<04791>

throne
<03678>

from the beginning
<07223>

[is] the place
<04725>

of our sanctuary
<04720>_.

17:13

O LORD
<03068>_,

the hope
<04723>

of Israel
<03478>_,

all that forsake
<05800> (8802)

thee shall be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_,

[and] they that depart
<03249>

from me
<05493> (8803)

shall be written
<03789> (8735)

in the earth
<0776>_,

because they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the fountain
<04726>

of living
<02416>

waters
<04325>_.
