*
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 .
*
One basket had very good figs t @#
en #,
even like the figs that are first ripe :
and the other basket had very naughty figs t @#
en #,
which could not be eaten ,
they were so bad .
*
Then said the LORD unto me ,
What seest thou ,
Jeremiah ?
And I said ,
Figs t @#
en #;
the good figs t @#
en #,
very good ;
and the evil ,
very evil ,
that cannot be eaten ,
they are so evil .
