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)

Jeremiah 17:9-11
English Standard Version
9 The heart is deceitful above all things,
and desperately sick;
who can understand it?
10 (A)“I the Lord search the heart
(B)and test the mind,[a]
(C)to give every man according to his ways,
according to the fruit of his deeds.”
11 Like the (D)partridge that gathers a brood that she did not hatch,
so is (E)he who gets riches but not by justice;
(F)in the midst of his days they will leave him,
(G)and at his end he will be a fool.
