Jeremias

  • The Good Figs and the Bad Figs

  • |Jeremias 24:1| a After Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had taken into exile from Jerusalem b Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, together with c the officials of Judah, the craftsmen, and the metal workers, and had brought them to Babylon, the LORD showed me this vision: behold, d two baskets of figs placed before the temple of the LORD.

  • |Jeremias 24:2| One basket had very good figs, e like first-ripe figs, but the other basket had f very bad figs, so bad that they could not be eaten.

  • |Jeremias 24:3| And the LORD said to me, “What do you see, Jeremiah?” I said, “Figs, the good figs very good, and the bad figs very bad, so bad that they cannot be eaten.”

  • |Jeremias 24:4| Then the word of the LORD came to me:

  • |Jeremias 24:5| “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Like these good figs, so I will regard as good the exiles from Judah, g whom I have sent away from this place to the land of the Chaldeans.

  • |Jeremias 24:6| h I will set my eyes on them for good, and I will bring them back to this land. i I will build them up, and not tear them down; j I will plant them, and not pluck them up.

  • |Jeremias 24:7| k I will give them a heart to know that I am the LORD, l and they shall be my people m and I will be their God, n for they shall return to me with their whole heart.

  • |Jeremias 24:8| “But thus says the LORD: Like o the bad figs that are so bad they cannot be eaten, so will I treat p Zedekiah the king of Judah, his officials, the remnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land, and those who q dwell in the land of Egypt.

  • |Jeremias 24:9| I will make them r a horror 1 to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be s a reproach, t a byword, u a taunt, and v a curse in all the places where I shall drive them.

  • |Jeremias 24:10| And I will send w sword, famine, and pestilence upon them, until they shall be utterly destroyed from the land that I gave to them and their fathers.”
