Jeremiah 24

1Jehovah showedH7200 me, and, behold, twoH8147 baskets of figsH8384 set before the templeH1964 of Jehovah, after that Nebuchadrezzar kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had carried away captive JeconiahH3204 the sonH1121 of JehoiakimH3079, kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and the princesH8269 of JudahH3063, with the craftsmenH2796 and smithsH4525, from JerusalemH3389, and had broughtH935 them to BabylonH894. 2OneH259 basketH1731 had veryH3966 goodH2896 figsH8384, like the figsH8384 that are first-ripe; and the other basketH1731 had veryH3966 badH7451 figsH8384, which could not be eatenH398, they were so badH7451. 3Then saidH559 Jehovah unto me, What seest thou, JeremiahH3414? And I saidH559, FigsH8384; the goodH2896 figsH8384, veryH3966 goodH2896; and the badH7451, veryH3966 badH7451, that cannot be eatenH398, they are so badH7451.

4And the wordH1697 of Jehovah came unto me, sayingH559, 5ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478: Like these goodH2896 figsH8384, soH3651 will I regard the captives of JudahH3063, whom I have sentH7971 out of this placeH4725 into the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778, for goodH2896. 6For I will setH7760 mine eyesH5869 upon them for goodH2896, and I will bringH7725 them again to this landH776: and I will buildH1129 them, and not pull them downH2040; and I will plantH5193 them, and not pluckH5428 them up. 7And I will giveH5414 them a heartH3820 to knowH3045 me, that I am Jehovah: and they shall beH1961 my peopleH5971, and I will beH1961 their GodH430; for they shall returnH7725 unto me with their whole heartH3820.

8And as the badH7451 figsH8384, which cannot be eatenH398, they are soH3651 badH7451, surely thusH3541 saith Jehovah, SoH3651 will I giveH5414 up ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and his princesH8269, and the residue of JerusalemH3389, that remainH3427 in this landH776, and them that dwellH3427 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, 9I will even giveH5414 them up to be tossed to and fro among all the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 for evilH7451; to be a reproachH2781 and a proverbH4912, a tauntH8148 and a curseH7045, in all placesH4725 whither I shall driveH5080 them. 10And I will sendH7971 the swordH2719, the famineH7458, and the pestilenceH1698, among them, till they be consumed from off the landH127 that I gaveH5414 unto them and to their fathersH1.
