Jeremiah 17:9-13
9The heartH3820 is deceitfulH6121 above all things, and desperately wickedH605: who can knowH3045 it? 10I YhwhH3068 searchH2713 the heartH3820, I tryH974 the reinsH3629, even to giveH5414 every manH376 according to his waysH1870, and according to the fruitH6529 of his doingsH4611. 11As the partridgeH7124 sittethH1716 on eggs, and hatchethH3205 them not; so he that gettethH6213 richesH6239, and not by rightH4941, shall leaveH5800 them in the midstH2677 of his daysH3117, and at his endH319 shall be a foolH5036.1
12A gloriousH3519 highH4791 throneH3678 from the beginningH7223 is the placeH4725 of our sanctuaryH4720. 13O YhwhH3068, the hopeH4723 of IsraelH3478, all that forsakeH5800 thee shall be ashamedH954, and they that departH3249 from meH5493 shall be writtenH3789 in the earthH776, because they have forsakenH5800 YhwhH3068, the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 watersH4325.
