Jeremiah 17:9-11

Revised Geneva Translation

⁹ “The heart is deceitful and wicked above all things, who can know it?

¹⁰ “I, the LORD, search the heart, test the inner core, to give to every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his works.

¹¹ “As the partridge gathers those which she has not brought forth, he who gets riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days. And at his end, he shall be a fool.”
