Jeremiah 17:10-14

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.”

11Like 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.

12A glorious throne, exalted from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.

13Lord, you are the hope of Israel; all who forsake you will be put to shame. Those who turn away from you will be written in the dust because they have forsaken the Lord, the spring of living water.

14Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.
