The Book of Jeremiah, Chapter 17ΙΕΡΕΜΙΑΣ ΙΖ′

Each verse opens with the running Greek, an English translation, and a discourse note (its connective, relation, and role in the argument). Below follows the word-by-word breakdown in six tiers: gloss, case (color), parsing, syntax, semantic force, and a lexical note.

Case Nominative Genitive Dative Accusative Vocative Verb (no case) Indeclinable

Discourse notes head each verse: relation · connective · clause-flow. Indentation marks prominence — flush-left = main line of argument; indented = supporting / subordinate material.

Theme

False trust withers, trust in the Lord stands, and Sabbath fidelity is tested.

Translation & textual notes

The Greek text of Jeremiah 17 follows the standard critical text of the Septuagint as established in the Rahlfs-Hanhart edition (Septuaginta, rev. ed. 2006), an ancient and public-domain text; the critical apparatus is not reproduced. Opens with a wisdom-like antithesis between the one who trusts in human strength and the one who relies upon the Lord, then exposes the heart as deep and elusive while affirming that the Lord searches and repays every life according to its ways. A brief complaint about unjust wealth yields to a prayer that names the Lord as Israel's fountain of life and asks for healing, vindication, and deliverance from persecutors. The final movement turns outward in a gate-oracle on the sabbath: Jerusalem's kings and people are summoned to sanctify the day by laying down their burdens, with enduring royal stability promised for obedience and unquenchable fire threatened for refusal. Greek versification is followed here.

ἐπικατάρατος ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὃς τὴν ἐλπίδα ἔχει ἐπ' ἄνθρωπον καὶ στηρίσει σάρκα βραχίονος αὐτοῦ ἐπ' αὐτόν καὶ ἀπὸ κυρίου ἀποστῇ ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ

Accursed is the man who places his hope in a human being, who makes flesh the strength of his arm, and whose heart departs from the Lord.
