Jeremiah 17:9
Douay-Rheims
The heart is perverse above all things, and unsearchable, who can know it?
Tertullian
The Father, now that he has made him a little lower than the angels, will crown him with glory and honor and will put all things beneath his feet. Then those who pierced him will know who he is and will strike their breasts, tribe to tribe—because in fact they formerly failed to recognize him in the humility of human condition. "And he is man," says Jeremiah, "and who shall know him?" Because also, Isaiah says, "His nativity, who shall tell of it?"
