Jeremiah 17– man who trusts in mankind is cursed. He will not realize prosperity when it comes. 2017

Jer 17:3
O mountain of Mine in the countryside, I will give over your wealth and all your treasures for booty, Your high places for sin throughout your borders.

Jer 17:4
And you will, even of yourself, let go of your inheritance That I gave you; And I will make you serve your enemies In the land which you do not know; For you have kindled a fire in My anger Which will burn forever.

Elohim says they will let go of their inheritance. They will serve their enemies in strange lands. That generation of Judah has kindled the anger of Yahweh and it will burn against them forever.

Jer 17:5
Thus says the LORD, "Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind And makes flesh his strength, And whose heart turns away from the LORD.

Jer 17:6
"For he will be like a bush in the desert And will not see when prosperity comes, But will live in stony wastes in the wilderness, A land of salt without inhabitant.

Elohim says that the man who trusts in mankind is cursed. He will not realize prosperity when it comes. That is what we see in our day also. When people have prosperity, they suffer from depression, anxiety, and turmoil. Yahweh will contrast this man with the one who trusts in Him.
