Jeremiah 17:9

The Deceitful Heart

⁸ 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." ⁹ “The heart is more deceitful than all else
And is desperately sick;
Who can understand it?
¹⁰ "I the LORD search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds."
