Verse 8
Jeremiah 17:8
Young's Literal Translation
8
And hath been as a tree planted by waters, And by a rivulet he sendeth forth his roots, And he doth not see when heat cometh, And his leaf hath been green, And in a year of dearth he is not sorrowful, Nor doth he cease from making fruit.

And it will be like a tree planted by water, and by a stream it will send out its roots; and it will not fear when heat comes, and its leaves will be green; and in the year of drought it will not be anxious, nor will it cease to bear fruit.
