Favorite Answer
7 “But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD,
whose confidence is in him.
8 He will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.”
9 “The human heart is the most deceitful of all things,
and desperately wicked.
Who really knows how bad it is?
10 But I, the LORD, search all hearts
and examine secret motives.
I give all people their due rewards,
according to what their actions deserve.”
Trust the Lord, examine your motives, remember that you can’t really get away with anything. Whatever you put out into the world comes back to you. Violating God’s law brings consequences.
And the only way to find that peace is to turn your heart toward God.
And is desperately sick;
Who can understand it?”
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? (webster’s Bible)
The heart is deceitful above all things, and incurable; who can know it? (Darby’s version)
