Jeremiah 17:1-6

1“The sinH2403 of JudahH3063 is writtenH3789 with an ironH1270 stylusH5842, engravedH2790 with a diamondH8068 pointH6856 onH5921 the tabletsH3871 of their heartsH3820 and on the hornsH7161 of their altarsH4196.2Even their childrenH1121 rememberH2142 their altarsH4196 and Asherah polesH842 byH5921 the greenH7488 treesH6086 and onH5921 the highH1364 hillsH1389.3O My mountainH2042 in the countrysideH7704, I will give overH5414 your wealthH2428 and allH3605 your treasuresH214 as plunderH957, because of the sinH2403 of your high placesH1116, within allH3605 your bordersH1366.4And you yourself will relinquishH8058 the inheritanceH5159 thatH834 I gaveH5414 you. I will enslave youH5647 to your enemiesH341 in a landH776 thatH834 you do notH3808 knowH3045, forH3588 you have kindledH784H6919 My angerH639; it will burnH3344 foreverH5704H5769.”

5This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559:

“Cursed isH779 the manH1397 whoH834 trustsH982 in mankindH120,who makesH7760 mere fleshH1320 his strengthH22201and turnsH5493 his heartH3820 fromH4480 the LORDH3068.6He will beH1961 like a shrubH6176 in the desertH6160;he will notH3808 seeH7200 whenH3588 prosperityH2896 comesH935.He will dwellH7931 in the parched placesH2788 of the desertH4057,in a saltH4420 landH776 where noH3808 one livesH3427.
