(Jeremiah 17:7 - 8) (New American Bible) (NAB) (7) Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose hope is the Lord. (8) He is like a tree planted beside the waters that stretches out its roots to the stream: it fears not the heat when it comes, its leaves stay green; in the year of drought it shows no distress, but still bears fruit.
