Jeremiah 17:9

The Deceitful Heart

⁸ For he shall be as a tree, that is planted by the waterside: which spreadeth out the root unto moistness, whom the heat cannot harm, when it cometh, but his leaves are green. And though there grow but little fruit because of drought yet is he not careful, but he never leaveth off to bring forth fruit. ⁹ Among all things living, man hath the most deceitful and unsearchable heart. Who shall then know it? ¹⁰ "Even I the LORD search out the ground of the heart, and try the reins, and reward every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his counsels."
