strkjv@Jeremiah:24:1
@ The
LORD
shewed
me, and, behold,
two
baskets
of
figs
were
set
before
the
temple
of the
LORD
,
after
that
Nebuchadrezzar
king
of
Babylon
had carried away
captive
Jeconiah
the
son
of
Jehoiakim
king
of
Judah
, and the
princes
of
Judah
, with the
carpenters
and
smiths
, from
Jerusalem
, and had
brought
them to
Babylon
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:24:2
@
One
basket
had
very
good
figs
t@, even like the
figs
that are first
ripe
: and the
other
basket
had
very
naughty
figs
t@, which could not be
eaten
, they were so
bad
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:24:3
@ Then
said
the
LORD
unto me, What
seest
thou,
Jeremiah
? And I
said
,
Figs
t@; the
good
figs
t@,
very
good
; and the
evil
,
very
evil
, that cannot be
eaten
, they are so
evil
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:24:4
@ Again the
word
of the
LORD
came unto me,
saying
,
strkjv@Jeremiah:24:5
@ Thus
saith
the
LORD
, the
God
of
Israel
; Like these
good
figs
t@, so will I
acknowledge
them that are carried away
captive
of
Judah
, whom I have
sent
out of this
place
into the
land
of the
Chaldeans
for their
good
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:24:6
@ For I will
set
mine
eyes
upon them for
good
, and I will bring them
again
to this
land
: and I will
build
them, and not pull them
down
; and I will
plant
them, and not pluck them
up
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:24:7
@ And I will
give
them an
heart
to
know
me, that I am the
LORD
: and they shall be my
people
, and I will be their
God
: for they shall
return
unto me with their whole
heart
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:24:8
@ And as the
evil
figs
t@, which cannot be
eaten
, they are so
evil
; surely thus
saith
the
LORD
, So will I
give
Zedekiah
the
king
of
Judah
, and his
princes
, and the
residue
of
Jerusalem
, that
remain
in this
land
, and them that
dwell
in the
land
of
Egypt
:
strkjv@Jeremiah:24:9
@ And I will
deliver
them to be
removed
into all the
kingdoms
of the
earth
for their
hurt
, to be a
reproach
and a
proverb
, a
taunt
and a
curse
, in all
places
whither I shall
drive
them.
strkjv@Jeremiah:24:10
@ And I will
send
the
sword
, the
famine
, and the
pestilence
, among them, till they be
consumed
from off the
land
that I
gave
unto them and to their
fathers
.
