— Jeremiah 17:10-11 —
"I the Lord search the heart
and examine the mind,
to reward each person according to their conduct,
according to what their deeds deserve."
Like a partridge that hatches eggs it did not lay
are those who gain riches by unjust means.
When their lives are half gone, their riches will desert them,
and in the end they will prove to be fools.
