Jeremiah 17:7-8
New American Standard Bible
7 (A)Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
And whose (B)trust is the Lord.
8 For he will be like a (C)tree planted by the water
That extends its roots by a stream,
And does not fear when the heat comes;
But its leaves will be green,
And it will not be anxious in a year of (D)drought,
Nor cease to yield fruit.
Jeremiah 17:7-8
New English Translation
Jeremiah 17:7-8
New English Translation
7 My blessing is on those people who trust in me,
who put their confidence in me.[a]
8 They will be like a tree planted near a stream
whose roots spread out toward the water.
It has nothing to fear when the heat comes.
Its leaves are always green.
It has no need to be concerned in a year of drought.
It does not stop bearing fruit.
Footnotes
- Jeremiah 17:7 tn Heb “Blessed is the person who trusts in the Lord, and whose confidence is in the Lord.” However, because this is a statement of the Lord and the translation chooses to show that the blessing comes from him, the first person is substituted for the divine name.

7 “But blessed are those who trust in the Lord
and have made the Lord their hope and confidence.
8 They are like trees planted along a riverbank,
with roots that reach deep into the water.
Such trees are not bothered by the heat
or worried by long months of drought.
Their leaves stay green,
and they never stop producing fruit.
