Jeremiah 17:9-11
Christian Standard Bible
The Deceitful Heart
10 I, the Lord, examine the mind,
I test the heart[a](C)
to give to each according to his way,
according to what his actions deserve.(D)
11 He who makes a fortune unjustly
is like a partridge that hatches eggs it didn’t lay.
In the middle of his life
his riches will abandon him,
so in the end he will be a fool.(E)
