Jeremiah 17:6-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 They shall be like a shrub in the desert
and shall not see when relief comes.
They shall live in the parched places of the wilderness,
in an uninhabited salt land.(A)
7 Blessed are those who trust in the Lord,
whose trust is the Lord.(B)
8 They shall be like a tree planted by water,
sending out its roots by the stream.
It shall not fear when heat comes,
and its leaves shall stay green;
in the year of drought it is not anxious,
and it does not cease to bear fruit.(C)
