Jeremiah 17:4-6
New International Version
Jeremiah 17:4-6
New International Version
4 Through your own fault you will lose
the inheritance(A) I gave you.
I will enslave you to your enemies(B)
in a land(C) you do not know,
for you have kindled my anger,
and it will burn(D) forever.”
5 This is what the Lord says:
“Cursed is the one who trusts in man,(E)
who draws strength from mere flesh
and whose heart turns away from the Lord.(F)
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(G) of the desert,
in a salt(H) land where no one lives.
Jeremiah 17:4-6
King James Version
Jeremiah 17:4-6
King James Version
4 And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue from thine heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger, which shall burn for ever.
5 Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.
6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
