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.
Jeremiah 17:6-8
New International Version
6 That person will be like a bush in the wastelands;
they will not see prosperity when it comes.
They will dwell in the parched places(A) of the desert,
in a salt(B) land where no one lives.
7 “But blessed(C) is the one who trusts(D) in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.
8 They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.(E)
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought(F)
and never fails to bear fruit.”(G)
