Exegesis
A chiastic parallelism arises in the prepositional phrases ki-derachav {כִּדְרָכָיו | ki-dra-ḵāw} “according to his ways” and ki-pri {כִּפְרִ֖י | ki-prî} “according to the fruit” of ma‘alalav {מַעֲלָלָיו | ma-ʿă-lā-lāw} “his deeds,” reinforcing divine justice and accountability.
In context — Jeremiah 17:10
I, the LORD , search the heart and examine the innermost being , to give to each person according to his ways and according to the fruit of his deeds.
