H3068
The LORD
H7200 [H8689]
showed
H8147
me, and, behold, two
H1736
baskets
H8384
of figs
H3259 [H8716]
were set
H6440
before
H1964
the temple
H3068
of the LORD
H310
, after
H5019
Nebuchadnezzar
H4428
king
H894
of Babylon
H1540 [H8687]
had carried away captive
H3204
Jeconiah
H1121
the son
H3079
of Jehoiakim
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H8269
, and the princes
H3063
of Judah
H2796
, with the craftsmen
H4525
and smiths
H3389
, from Jerusalem
H935 [H8686]
, and had brought
H894
them to Babylon.
2
H259
One
H1731
basket
H3966
had very
H2896
good
H8384
figs
H8384
, even like the figs
H1073
that are first ripe
H259
: and the other
H1731
basket
H3966
had very
H7451
bad
H8384
figs
H398 [H8735]
, which could not be eaten
H7455
, they were so bad.
3
H559 [H8799]
Then said
H3068
the LORD
H7200 [H8802]
to me, What seest
H3414
thou, Jeremiah
H559 [H8799]
? And I said
H8384
, Figs
H2896
; the good
H8384
figs
H3966
, very
H2896
good
H7451
; and the bad
H3966
, very
H7451
bad
H398 [H8735]
, that cannot be eaten
H7455
, they are so bad.
5
H559 [H8804]
Thus saith
H3068
the LORD
H430
, the God
H3478
of Israel
H2896
; Like these good
H8384
figs
H5234 [H8686]
, so will I acknowledge
H1546
them that are carried away captive
H3063
of Judah
H7971 [H8765]
, whom I have sent
H4725
out of this place
H776
into the land
H3778
of the Chaldeans
H2896
for their good.
6
H7760 [H8804]
For I will set
H5869
my eyes
H2896
upon them for good
H7725 [H8689]
, and I will bring them again
H776
to this land
H1129 [H8804]
: and I will build
H2040 [H8799]
them, and not pull them down
H5193 [H8804]
; and I will plant
H5428 [H8799]
them, and not pluck them up.
7
H5414 [H8804]
And I will give
H3820
them an heart
H3045 [H8800]
to know
H3068
me, that I am the LORD
H5971
: and they shall be my people
H430
, and I will be their God
H7725 [H8799]
: for they shall return
H3820
to me with their whole heart.
8
H7451
And as the bad
H8384
figs
H398 [H8735]
, which cannot be eaten
H7455
, they are so bad
H559 [H8804]
; surely thus saith
H3068
the LORD
H5414 [H8799]
, So will I give
H6667
Zedekiah
H4428
the king
H3063
of Judah
H8269
, and his princes
H7611
, and the remnant
H3389
of Jerusalem
H7604 [H8737]
, that remain
H776
in this land
H3427 [H8802]
, and them that dwell
H776
in the land
H4714
of Egypt:
