Jeremiah 17:5-8
English Standard Version
5 Thus says the Lord:
“Cursed is the man (A)who trusts in man
and makes flesh his strength,[a]
whose heart turns away from the Lord.
6 (B)He is like a shrub in the desert,
(C)and shall not see any good come.
He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness,
in (D)an uninhabited salt land.
7 (E)“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
(F)whose trust is the Lord.
8 (G)He is like a tree planted by water,
that sends out its roots by the stream,
and does not fear when heat comes,
for its leaves remain green,
and is not anxious in the year of drought,
for it does not cease to bear fruit.”

Jeremiah 17:5-8
Common English Bible
5 The Lord proclaims:
Cursed are those who trust in mere humans,
who depend on human strength
and turn their hearts from the Lord.
6 They will be like a desert shrub
that doesn’t know when relief comes.
They will live in the parched places of the wilderness,
in a barren land where no one survives.
7 Happy are those who trust in the Lord,
who rely on the Lord.
8 They will be like trees planted by the streams,
whose roots reach down to the water.
They won’t fear drought when it comes;
their leaves will remain green.
They won’t be stressed in the time of drought
or fail to bear fruit.
