Jeremiah 17:6-8 New English Translation (NET)

6. They will be like a shrub in the desert.They will not experience good things even when they happen.It will be as though they were growing in the desert,in a salt land where no one can live.

7. My blessing is on those people who trust in me,who put their confidence in me.

8. They will be like a tree planted near a streamwhose roots spread out toward the water.It has nothing to fear when the heat comes.Its leaves are always green.It has no need to be concerned in a year of drought.It does not stop bearing fruit.
