Jeremiah 17:9

The Deceitful Heart

⁸ He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by a stream. He won't fear when the heat comes, and his leaves will be green. In a year of drought he won't be concerned, nor will he stop producing fruit." ⁹ "The heart is more deceitful than anything. It is incurable who can know it? ¹⁰ I am the LORD who searches the heart, who tests the inner depths to give to each person according to what he deserves, according to the fruit of his deeds.
