Jeremiah 17:6 in Context — Jeremiah 17
4 Assim por causa de ti deixarás de ter a herança que eu te dei, e te farei servir a teus inimigos em uma terra que não conheces; porque acendestes fogo em minha ira, que arderá para sempre.
5 Assim diz o SENHOR: Maldito o homem que confia no homem, e põe sua confiança na força humana, ) e seu coração se afasta do SENHOR;
6 Pois será como um arbusto no deserto, e não sente quando vier o bem; ao invés disso morará nas securas no deserto, em terra salgada e inabitável.
7 Bendito o homem que confia no SENHOR, cuja confiança é o SENHOR;
8 Porque ele será como a árvore plantada junto a águas, que estende suas raízes junto à corrente; não tem preocupação quando vier o calor, e sua folha permanece verde; e no ano de seca não se cansa, nem deixa de dar fruto.
