Jeremiah 17:5-7

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ Thus says the Lord:
Cursed are those who trust in mere mortals
    and make mere flesh their strength,
    whose hearts turn away from the Lord.
⁶ They shall be like a shrub in the desert,
    and shall not see when relief comes.
They shall live in the parched places of the wilderness,
    in an uninhabited salt land.

⁷ Blessed are those who trust in the Lord,
    whose trust is the Lord.
