“But the person who trusts in the Lord will be blessed. The Lord will show him that he can be trusted.
“But the person who trusts in the Lord will be blessed.
The Lord will show him that he can be trusted.
He will be strong, like a tree planted near water.
That tree has large roots that find the water.
It is not afraid when the days are hot.
Its leaves are always green.
It does not worry in a year when no rain comes.
倚靠耶和華、以耶和華為可靠的， 那人有福了！
他必像樹栽於水旁， 在河邊扎根， 炎熱來到，並不懼怕， 葉子仍必青翠，
在乾旱之年毫無掛慮， 而且結果不止。耶利米書17:7-8
“But blessed is the man who trusts me, God,
the woman who sticks with God.
They’re like trees replanted in Eden,
putting down roots near the rivers—
Never a worry through the hottest of summers,
never dropping a leaf,
Serene and calm through droughts,
bearing fresh fruit every season.
