Jeremiah 17:9-11
New American Standard Bible
9 “The (A)heart is more (B)deceitful than all else
And is desperately (C)sick;
Who can understand it?
10 I, the Lord, (D)search the heart,
I test the [a]mind,
(E)To give to each person according to his ways,
According to the [b]results of his deeds.
11 As a partridge that hatches eggs which it has not laid,
So is a person who (F)makes a fortune, but unjustly;
In the middle of his days it will abandon him,
And in [c]the end he will be a (G)fool.”

Jeremiah 17:9-11
New King James Version
9 “The (A)heart is deceitful above all things,
And [a]desperately wicked;
Who can know it?
10 I, the Lord, (B)search the heart,
I test the [b]mind,
(C)Even to give every man according to his ways,
According to the fruit of his doings.
11 “As a partridge that [c]broods but does not hatch,
So is he who gets riches, but not by right;
It (D)will leave him in the midst of his days,
And at his end he will be (E)a fool.”
