Jeremiah 24:1-8

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>_:
