17:8

וְהָיָה כְּעֵץ ׀ שָׁתוּל עַל־מַיִם וְעַל־יוּבַל יְשַׁלַּח שׇׁרָשָׁיו וְלֹא (ירא) [יִרְאֶה] כִּי־יָבֹא חֹם וְהָיָה עָלֵהוּ רַעֲנָן וּבִשְׁנַת בַּצֹּרֶת לֹא יִדְאָג וְלֹא יָמִישׁ מֵעֲשׂוֹת פֶּֽרִי׃

For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, and that spreads out its roots by the river, and shall not see when the heat comes, but its leaf shall be green; and shall not be anxious in the year of drought, nor shall it cease from yielding fruit.

ולא יראה. העץ כי יבא חום:

בצורת. ל' רעב פאמצ"א בלעז, ל"א בצורת ל' מבצר וכן חברו מנחם:

לא ידאג. לא יפחד:

17:9

עָקֹב הַלֵּב מִכֹּל וְאָנֻשׁ הוּא מִי יֵדָעֶֽנּוּ׃

The heart is deceitful above all things, and grievously weak: who can know it?

The heart is deceitful above all things, and grievously weak: who can know it?

עקוב הלב. מלא תואנה ועקובה מכל רעה:

מי ידענו. הוא סבור מי ידענו אני ה' חוקרו:

אֲנִי יְהֹוָה חֹקֵר לֵב בֹּחֵן כְּלָיוֹת וְלָתֵת לְאִישׁ כִּדְרָכָו כִּפְרִי מַעֲלָלָֽיו׃ {ס}        

I, the Lord, search the heart, I try the inward parts, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
