Jeremiah 17:6-8

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ He will be like a bush in the wilderness.
He will not see when something good comes.
He will live in the dry places in the desert,
in a salty land where no one can live.
⁷ Blessed is the person who trusts the Lord.
The Lord will be his confidence.
⁸ He will be like a tree that is planted by water.
It will send its roots down to a stream.
It will not be afraid in the heat of summer.
Its leaves will turn green.
It will not be anxious during droughts.
It will not stop producing fruit.
