These verses come just after verses in chapter 17 where the Lord himself beautifully paraphrased Psalm\u20081: Jer. 17:9 NLT \u201cThe human heart is the most deceitful of all things,     and desperately wicked.     Who really knows how bad it is? 10 But I, the Lord, search all hearts     and examine secret motives. I give all people their due rewards,     according to what their actions deserve.\u201d Then in chapter 18, we also heard the famous passage about the Lord being like a potter, which Paul refers to in Romans 9. PSALM 147:Again this is quite a contrast with Jeremiah\u2019s feelings which we just read! This is our second Hallelujah psalm. And hallelujah has been translated according to its meaning here as \u201cPraise the LORD.\u201d This psalm has incredible depth. 1CORINTHIANS 3:10\u20144:21Paul is still \u2018going on about\u2019 the same thing. He is going to return to the subject of himself and Apollos in chapter 4\u2014 which summarizes the division in the Corinthian church. To give the connection, let\u2019s start reading at chapter 3 verse 10. NLT Translation notes:1Cor. 4:7 For what gives you the right to make such a judgment? What do you have that God hasn\u2019t [just] given you? And if everything you have is from God, why boast as though it were not a gift?10 Our dedication to Christ [paradoxically] makes us look like fools, but you claim to be so wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are so powerful! You are honored, but we are ridiculed.13 We appeal gently when evil things are said about us. [0\/Yet] we are treated like the world\u2019s garbage, like everybody\u2019s trash\u2014right up to the present moment.   Unless otherwise indicated, all Scripture quotations are taken from the Holy Bible, New Living Translation, copyright \u00a9 1996, 2004, 2015 by Tyndale House Foundation.
