Jeremiah 24:1-10

The LORD
<03068>
shewed
<07200> (8689)
me, and, behold, two
<08147>
baskets
<01736>
of figs
<08384>
[were] set
<03259> (8716)
before
<06440>
the temple
<01964>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
after
<0310>
that Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
had carried away captive
<01540> (8687)
Jeconiah
<03204>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and the princes
<08269>
of Judah
<03063>_,
with the carpenters
<02796>
and smiths
<04525>_,
from Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and had brought
<0935> (8686)
them to Babylon
<0894>_.
One
<0259>
basket
<01731>
[had] very
<03966>
good
<02896>
figs
<08384>_,
[even] like the figs
<08384>
[that are] first ripe
<01073>_:
and the other
<0259>
basket
<01731>
[had] very
<03966>
naughty
<07451>
figs
<08384>_,
which could not be eaten
<0398> (8735)_,
they were so bad
<07455>_.
{they...: Heb. for badness}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the LORD
<03068>
unto me, What seest
<07200> (8802)
thou, Jeremiah
<03414>_?
And I said
<0559> (8799)_,
Figs
<08384>_;
the good
<02896>
figs
<08384>_,
very
<03966>
good
<02896>_;
and the evil
<07451>_,
very
<03966>
evil
<07451>_,
that cannot be eaten
<0398> (8735)_,
they are so evil
<07455>_.
Again the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Like these good
<02896>
figs
<08384>_,
so will I acknowledge
<05234> (8686)
them that are carried away captive
<01546>
of Judah
<03063>_,
whom I have sent
<07971> (8765)
out of this place
<04725>
into the land
<0776>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>
for [their] good
<02896>_.
{them...: Heb. the captivity}
For I will set
<07760> (8804)
mine eyes
<05869>
upon them for good
<02896>_,
and I will bring them again
<07725> (8689)
to this land
<0776>_:
and I will build
<01129> (8804)
them, and not pull [them] down
<02040> (8799)_;
and I will plant
<05193> (8804)
them, and not pluck [them] up
<05428> (8799)_.
And I will give
<05414> (8804)
them an heart
<03820>
to know
<03045> (8800)
me, that I [am] the LORD
<03068>_:
and they shall be my people
<05971>_,
and I will be their God
<0430>_:
for they shall return
<07725> (8799)
unto me with their whole heart
<03820>_.
And as the evil
<07451>
figs
<08384>_,
which cannot be eaten
<0398> (8735)_,
they are so evil
<07455>_;
surely thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
So will I give
<05414> (8799)
Zedekiah
<06667>
the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and his princes
<08269>_,
and the residue
<07611>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that remain
<07604> (8737)
in this land
<0776>_,
and them that dwell
<03427> (8802)
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_:
And I will deliver
<05414> (8804)
them to be removed
<02189> (8675) <02113>
into all the kingdoms
<04467>
of the earth
<0776>
for [their] hurt
<07451>_,
[to be] a reproach
<02781>
and a proverb
<04912>_,
a taunt
<08148>
and a curse
<07045>_,
in all places
<04725>
whither I shall drive
<05080> (8686)
them. {to be removed: Heb. for removing, or, vexation}
And I will send
<07971> (8765)
the sword
<02719>_,
the famine
<07458>_,
and the pestilence
<01698>_,
among them, till they be consumed
<08552> (8800)
from off the land
<0127>
that I gave
<05414> (8804)
unto them and to their fathers
<01>_.
